DIY Mothers Day Art



Sometimes the best crafts are the simplest ones, and even better if they are almost free. There are lots of fun things you can make with recycled things from around the house so why not have a craft bin where you can collect old toilet rolls, bottles etc.. Here's a great example of what you can make with a recycled bottle and some paint.


What you need:

Empty plastic bottle
Coloured Paint
Blank Canvas
Paint Brush

Instructions:

1) Decide what type of tree shape you would like to make.
2) Paint the tree trunk or flower stem onto your canvas and let it dry

3) Dip the bottom of your bottle into the paint colour of your choice.


4) Make sure the whole of the bottom of the bottle is covered in paint.

5) Begin designing your beautiful tree blossoms by stamping various colours onto your canvas.
6) Paint a personal message of your choice to your mum to wish her a Happy Mother's Day.
