Cricut Circle Blog Monthly Challenge: Reuse, Repurpose, Recycle!

This is my first Monthly Challenge through the Cricut Circle Blog!  In this challenge, you must recycle, reuse or repurpose 3 items on your project.  I decided to enter my party decorations that I made for my daughter's birthday (today is her 5th birthday).  My daughter LOVES Spongebob Squarepants so we went with the Spongebob theme and made these decorations.  For each of these characters, I used the Spongebob Squarepants cartridge and printed and cut the layers with my Cricut Imagine.  I repurposed a few things around the house to create these decorations:  the flower pots, BBQ skewers, and the shredded paper in the pots is reused from Easter baskets!  They were a lot of fun to make and a hit at the family party we had this evening, but I think they will be even more of a hit when we have the kid's party this weekend!

  3. Very nice to teach the children how to recycle and why...the schools should definitely encourage such projects.
