Earth Day Revisited

Although we were a few days past Earth Day, the sculptures made with recycled materials were still up at Fountain Square on Saturday.

The shimmery tree with leaves cut from aluminum cans was a hit with everyone.


Second favorite was a waterfall utilizing lids - from soda bottles, detergent bottles, and other twist-offs, right-side up and up-side down. Very clever.

I enjoyed watching the kids' reactions to seeing familiar things used in different ways. Surely there's a good book out there with easy recycling projects.
