For Earth Day, I like to try to figure out a recycle craft with cute results. We have what seems like a million bottle caps for the longest time so I was trying to figure out a craft for them. I found cute wooden turtle bases and realized I could make an adorable sea turtle with the bottle caps. Plus I know my teens love animal crafts.
Supplies
- 1 Wooden Turtle Base
- 14 – 20 Bottle Caps per turtle
- Green Paint / Permanent Marker
- Black Permanent Marker
- Hot Glue
- Hot Glue Gun
Instructions
- Color the Base Green, or another color. I used a Permanent Marker. It worked nicely on the wood and was faster to dry than to paint, but I did offer both options. Feel free to have more colors than green, some teens got creative with their turtles.
- Using a black marker create a scale design. I just did little half circles layered on top of each…
