Best Out of Waste: A Beautiful Wall Piece Using a Paper Plate

Turn Recyclables Into Art

Some of the things that would otherwise end up in the dustbin make great materials for craft projects. Families can have lots of fun setting aside clean materials to create works of art.

Here are a few examples:

• Paper, including envelopes, scraps, and colored pieces. It's good for the environment and saves money to use good paper rather than toss it out.
• Old magazines contain photos and other graphics that can easily be cut up and used in art projects.
• Old newspapers are useful for papier mache and collage.
• Clean ice cream and popsicle sticks.
• Fabric, ribbon, lace, and buttons.

Creating new things out of waste is very satisfying, and this certainly is one of the best pieces I have created. Since I started making art out of recycled materials, I have developed a habit of saving things. I can make small flowers out of bits of colored paper, pencil shavings, ice cream sticks, and beads. The possibilities are almost endless!

I've broken this project into step-by-step instructions so you can make a beautiful wall piece out of waste material that can be easily found at home.

Collect These Things Together

What You Will Need:

Hang Your Craft and Enjoy!

Your new wall piece is ready!

Use doubled-sided tape to attach a ribbon on the back, so you can hang the piece, or use it as a center-piece on a table.
