Supplies Needed:

• one emptied and rinsed-out soup can
• about 17-20 (4.5-inch long) popsicle sticks – The amount will vary depending on the size of your can. I used 17 sticks for a 15 oz. soup can
• paint – I used Crayola paints – lime green, yellow, lavender, light blue, pink
• paintbrush or sponge brush
• low-temperature glue gun or Fabri-tac glue
• soil
• flower plant

Instructions:

• Set out something to protect your work surface from paint
• Divide the popsicle sticks into groups – one group for each color of paint you have
• Paint each grouping a different color and let dry
• Glue the sticks in a colorful pattern all the way around the soup can

Gluing tip: Use a Rubberband
