Recycling water bottles and creating green art





Noa and I spent a happy afternoon recycling 6l plastic water bottles. After cutting them in half and making some drainage holes, we filled them with potting soil. Then we went wild with all the plants, rocks, sticks, metal cans, fabric and shells we could find to create miniature gardens. We had a super time! In October the Art Show Collective will be organising the GreenArt Event and I would love to present these gardens as a workshop for children and adults. Creating a growing piece of art can be a truly wonderful experience for a child especially for those who are not used to having an opportunity to sink their hands in the soil.
Noa says: "I had lots of fun doing the gardins with mom. I made a tree haus with a bed and a table."
