Miffy, from Witham, UK made an amazing Minion display! That are not only fun to look at, but are also great plant pots!
You will need:
Tyres
Paint
I used Ordinary Emulsion paint. Most of it was given to me, the tyres were free too. I painted the blue for the bottom and yellow for the top. I then stacked them up and then painted the face. It all came together really well! I then added the plants for the hair.
To be honest, everything worked the painting was very effective, there wasn’t anything that didn’t work
Do you have any other projects planned?
I would love to make a seating area with tyres and a wishing well.

How are you finding being housebound so far?
I have actually been ok through lockdown. Unfortunately, I had to have an operation due to skin cancer, so I was housebound for a while, The kids have been amazing, helping me once I was able to get about. That’s when the idea with the tyres came about to keep me busy. I have loved it!
Do you have any tips for other parents?
I think it best to keep it as relaxed as you can it’s not easy being housebound, it does depend on your Kids ages especially when they are younger, but maybe getting them to help with things which keeps them busy and make it fun xx
Has this website and community helped you?
The website has been great! It has really helped me with different ideas through being housebound. Thank you xx
