Elephant Sculptures

Want to make an uber-cool sculpture?

Recycle used plastic milk bottles to make these awesome Elephant scupltures

What will you need:

Instructions:

  • Used plastic milkbottles (give them a really good clean)

  • Scraps of coloured paper/ tissue/ magazines cut into random square shapes.

  • PVA glue or alternative

Simple but effective!

  • Ask an adult for help to cut your milk bottle into the required shape. You need to cut a shape for the 4 legs and then cut the handle to make a truck

  • Glue your squares of paper to create a sculpture that is as colourful as possible.

  • Glue together a few squares of paper to make something thick enough to add as ears

  • Get the whole family involved if you can. These make lovely presents for little ones.
