RECYCLING CHALLENGE

Picture
Hi everybody,
I'm sure you are as bored as I am so I would like to challenge you to create something from your recycling bin. This item can be as small or as large as you want it to be. You can have a competition with your family members or team up to create something together.

​Please send a picture of your creation to chesleylib@gmail.com and we may share it on our library website.

​Use any craft items you have and remember to have fun!

​Good luck!
Diane,
Look at some of the things our Library Assistant, Diane, has made by recycling materials!
