Make it Monday | Make a recycled can garden “minibeast”

As we move to creating less waste and recycling and upcycling more, why not use the old food cans to create a super cute “minibeasts” to decorate your garden with your children.

You will need:

– Clean food cans – make sure there are no sharp edges.

– Paints in your chosen colours – acrylic work best but you can mix readymix paint with PVA glue.

– Googly eyes or buttons.

– Glue

– Pipe cleaners or thick wire

– String
