Mark Earth Day by crafting this simple Earth wand using recycled materials.
Creating an Earth Day wand from twigs and leaves is a wonderful eco-friendly idea, embracing nature to celebrate and symbolize our commitment to the environment.
We cut the Earth pieces from recycled cardboard and painted them with vibrant Carioca Temperello sticks, a lovely gift from Pandie. They’re easy to use, and we enjoy the bright colors.
To finalize our Earth wand, we incorporated a twig as a handle, elegantly intertwining nature into our creation. We encircled the leaves behind the cardboard Earth, enhancing the whimsical charm of the wand and infusing it with a touch of the outdoors.
