Recycled Bottle Cap and Plastic Lid Frogs!

Bottle cap frogs,recycled lid frogs

Been saving those plastic lids and colored bottle caps for crafting? Good thing, since I’ve finally come up with a cute little project for those that happen to be green—bottle cap frogs of course! You can use these to decorate your Passover table or take them out during the seder when the plague of the frogs is mentioned.

Either way, the kids will love them, and you can make them as a surprise or get the kids to make them as a surprise for other family members. If you’d like to make some frogs that you could actually throw around, for some added excitement, try my pom pom frogs from last year here.

You’ll Need:

  • green plastic jar lids and bottle caps
  • green felt
  • green wooden beads
  • paint pens in black and red
  • hot glue gun or craft glue

How To:
Cut out front and rear legs from felt, attach with glue. Use beads for eyes on lids, and add details with a paint pen. So simple and so cute, and stay tuned for some more 10 plague inspired crafting!

    These are cute and we always have a tub of bottle lids ready to play with. They’d be a great prop of singing and counting along with 5 Little Speckled frogs too.
