    Recycled Bottle Monsters Craft

    Feb 11, 2015 · Modified: Mar 14, 2017 by Ali · Leave a Comment

    Last weekend we went to a crafts event put on by Brecon Carreg - read more about it here. We made these fabulous monsters from recycled bottles so I thought I would share with you exactly how they were made.

    IMG_7010 Cut the bottoms off two identical bottles.

    Sellotape the two halves together on one edge so that they make a little pot.

    Add googley eyes / teeth / hair / tongue, to the outside with glue.

    Paint the inside with poster paint of your choice.

    Leave to dry and voila - your own bottle monster!
