Upcycled Ceiling Tiles
This past year, our church was blessed
with a new wooden ceiling. Hence, the old cardboard tiles were removed to
install the wood. After making sure there was no threat of asbestos, I
rescued enough tiles to serve as perfect square canvases for our
"shine" theme. We painted the background blue. Each child
painted a partial sun and added a spiral and dots. Our theme Bible Verse
was also added along the edge of the sun. Finally, we painted paper using
different colors to create a streaky look (think "Eric Carle.") After
it dried we cut it into long triangles to make the rays of the sun. We
used the same technique to make the "shine" lettering using yellow,
white, and orange colors. Finally we cut out the letters and glued them
on to complete the project. I love how everyone followed the same
directions, but no two look exactly alike.
