Upcycled Crafts for Kids

Melissa, the Empress of Dirt blogger, calls these cute birds Earth Wise Owls because they are made of recycled cardboard. With bent spoons as beaks and black button eyes, these owls are wise indeed. If you don’t have corrugated cardboard around, she shows you how to peel off the top layer of standard box cardboard to get to the inner, corrugated layer. These look rustically beautiful as is, but you could also glam up your owls with feathers or even seasonal touches. Get the full scoop at the Empress of Dirt blog.
