Bean Mosaic

Bean Mosaic


•Assortate dried Beans (A package of soup beans works great)
•white glue
•plastic lid (deli container lids work great)
•soap and water (for clean up)
•yarn


Fill the lid with white glue--don't let it run over the sides or you'll have a big mess to clean-up and thats a whole different project. Place the varity of beans and seeds into the glue in a pattern of your choice to create a mosaic effect. Find a safe place for the project to dry--I find somewhere out of the way and hidden as a good spot. Forget about the project for several days--it takes a long time to dry. Once the glue is completely dry, remove the lid, find a spot to thread a piece of yarn though to hang this work of art.
