Upcycled Soda Bottle Planter

Earth Day is coming up and everyone is looking for cute planet-friendly crafts to do, so I just had to share this super cute planter my 6 year old made for school!

It’s Earth Week at her school and each grade had a different upcycled project to make.  The kindergarteners had to make planters and she decided to make a “girl planter”  — of course.  She liked the idea of a see-though planter so I cut the top off of a soda bottle for her to work with.  She added bottle top eyes, toilet paper roll strip ears, and even pipe cleaner earrings!  She really wanted to be able to put a bow in the plant hair so we planted a wheat grass plant.  After it was in she gave it a “hair cut” and then we tied a bow around it.

I see a little family of people planters in our future!
