"Today I'm gonna show and share to you another how to do Arts and Crafts in Pistachio Shells leftover helping the mother Earth and give your home decorations."

Things you need

old tree branches.

Stone or Marble.

Acrylic paint.

Paint brush

Stick Glue Gun.

Stick Glue.

Paper vellum board cardboard from old picture frame.

NOTE: You can use alternatives besides these, it depends upon your creativity and resources. All materials I use are from old recycle reuse from home.

Lets get started

On an old picture frame stick the old tree branch, you can use your own imagination on how you will put it in place, let your creative mind do the design you can do it.

Next is making a pistachio shells flower pattern, do it by sticking the shells together with, the more the better, It is up to you if how many shells you stick. You can color it just pick the color you like and paint it. Then use the glue stick and let them dry for 10 minutes.

When we were cleaning our house I saw a plastic leaves branches, so I decided to put it as a design to my art, instead of throwing it to trash, plastics is very dangerous if it is not disposed of properly so let's turn it to proper use make art from plastics.

You will see it's not that hard, you can do it too, maybe you are better than me, it takes days to make one, but it makes me relax and happy to do things besides being a mom, you can still do what you are dreaming of even if you have a child and also help the environment by recycling.

My finish products, I add some frame, DIY also from colored papers and it can be old news papers and magazines, just add coloring to the edge, any color you want, I was amazed at kinda 3-dimensional look and feel, just keep on creating and think before you throw anything to your trash cans, maybe there is something you can do to it, and be the one to heal the earth and natures life, I make another one hope you like it too, I want to see some of your works too.
