Check out these mini mosaics that can be used for children's jewelry or dangling decorations using materials you'd normally throw away, like lids from plastic bottles.

Materials

Directions

1

Make the premixed tile adhesive.

2

Fill the bottle lids with tile adhesive.

3

Stick your sparkly things into the tile adhesive. Make sure you embed the decorations well, so that they don't fall out.

4

Glue a rainbow-shaped piece of wire to the top back of your mosaic, then tie a string through the wire once it's dry. For magnets, simply glue the magnet on the back.
