At Everything Family Guide, our purpose is to recycle and re-use everything whenever we can. Everything little thing that households do to conserve resources goes a long way towards saving our world! So today we created mosaic style art using construction paper scraps from an old project.
Materials Needed:
- Different-colored scrap paper tiles (size doesn't matter)
- Scissors
- White paper (8 1/2 by 11 inches)
- Liquid glue
What to do:
Collect the construction paper scraps.

Cut them into little pieces; we cut ours into little rectangles.

Next, we applied liquid glue in a row and glued the pieces together, making sure that the pieces fit close together and there is little to no white space. This way there will be no straight lines when you are applying the mosaic tiles, as all the pieces are of different sizes (and that is what makes it look so good at the end).

All done! This is the finished product...

We had some more scraps left so we did another one!

Mosaic styled art projects are great for little hands and guaranteed to be lots of fun! And they always turn out to be so beautiful.
