Materials
Plastic Water bottles
Scissors
Fabric Paint or Washable Kid's Paint (Like Crayola)
paintbrushes - I like to use the sponge brushes
Yellow pom-poms - about 1/2 inch wide
low-temperature glue gun with glue sticks or fabri-tac glue
green straws -
try to find the ones with flexible tips
green construction paper
Instructions
Cut the ends off of the water bottles and dry them completely
Paint the inside of the bottle ends and let dry
Cut some little leaf shapes out of the green paper
Trim your straws to the desired length and glue to the back of the bottle end - I put a dot of glue at the bump (technical term) :)
Turn the bottle end around and use glue to add the yellow pom-pom to the indention (middle) of the bottle bottom
and glue cut out leaves to the straws
