What Now?

Next time we meet up, we are going to cut the remaining section of wood off and carefully add real glass to the glass section of our recycling bin. Today we did get a lot of work done, and we are excited to see the final product. :)

Mural Step 5: Title and Dry


Mural Step 4: Add on Recyclables!

With our mural, we wanted to show what type of materials you can recycle. We decided to put water bottles, plastic bags, soda cans, cardboard,  aluminum foil, fake glass (spray painted Cds), battery labels, and pictures of e-waste products. Hope the message will come across!

Mural Step 1: Sketching the Mural


Painting the Mural!

The next few posts will be the evolution of the painting of the mural throughout the day. This took about five hours, but is was worth it.

Buying Supplies!


Today we went out to go get the supplies to create our mural! It is going to be based on recycling and what items you are able to recycle. We bought paint, a wood panel, and even modge podge. Special thanks to Walmart, Michaels, and Home Depot. Can't wait until tomorrow when we start painting. :)
