Tip: Try creating such masks using different coloured papers. Plan a theme party and invite your friends over. Distribute these masks, click pictures and have some fun!

By following these simple steps, it becomes possible to create a beautiful mask from an ordinary plastic bottle – a bottle that otherwise would have been discarded and piled up at landfills. Eco-art is thus an earth-friendly activity that any beginner can accomplish with ease.

Eco-Art is now part of the regular holiday activities for guests at Munnar – Terrace Greens.
