UPCYCLED GARDEN FLOWERS USING MOTT'S APPLE SAUCE SNACK&GO POUCH LIDS AND GOGO SQUEEZ LIDS.

EASY TO CREATE EVER YELLOW GARDEN FLOWERS


      When I had purchased Applesauce Snack&Go and GoGo Squeeze for my kids, the first thing that came into my mind on seeing the lids was Sunflowers!

The lids really looked something different and I wanted to create flowers out of them. 
       I first collected few lids and washed them nicely with soap and water. I then used the yellow Mott's  applesauce lids to create the flowers and the green GoGo Squeez lids to create the leaves. I used lollipop sticks to create the stems.
       The steps are shown below to create these ever yellow flowers which will never wilt or wither away and will not need any water. It is very easy to create these and they look just wonderful in a garden!

Materials Needed:
 



I used Hot glue to glue the Lollipop sticks to the leaves and flowers.

 




The white stems /sticks were  then painted green using acrylic colors. I left them upside down for the paint to dry.


 Once all flowers were ready, I planted them in a planter to give them a real look! I placed them outdoors on my porch. They looked beautiful and I am sure yours will look too!
