Science + Art = Lasting Learning

For an evening of Family Fun on June 1,2012, the Santa Fe Watershed Association called for donations of bottle caps to create River Heart and Logo panels.

Steps:

- collect caps

(recycling centers sometimes let you harvest theirs)

- get backing ready

(plywood thick enough for screws is important)

-  wash caps with bleach in washing machine

- use glue dots to attach caps – avoids mess

- screw down caps after assembly

Inspired by Michelle Stitzlein’s book, Bottlecap, Little Bottlecap
