Bean Mosaics

I have seen this project several places on the web and wanted to try it.
Trader Jo's has cheap bags of beans so I grabbed a few and the kids got creative making their own unique bean mosaics.
First, they sketched a pictures, then outlined and filled in the picture with all different kindsand colors of beans. This project is simple but a bit time consuming.
They turned out great and look adorable in my kitchen window.
I love it when my house is filled with all of their wonderful creations!

I sorted beans this weekend in anticipation of some mosaic-y fun this week :) Thanks for your inspiration!
