Beans, Beans, Good for the Art

We made bean candle holders in preschool. Very simple to make. I got the idea from DLTK's site and adapted it a little. We used the cereal bowls from the breakfasts the kids get at school as the mold, the 15 bean soup mix and white school glue. I tried the tea candles this year. I've used tall candles in the past and I think I like the tall ones better. Here is how ours turned out. They are about 3"x3"x1 1/2".

I thought they would make cute center pieces on their thanksgiving tables. Emily's will be on ours!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!
