It’s no secret that I love making and sharing kid friendly craft ideas with you all {they have been my most popular posts to date!}
On Glued To My Crafts, I’ve shared quite a few children friendly crafts using tissue paper and paper plates but another favorite craft medium of mine is popsicle sticks. They are fairly inexpensive, easy to find in most stores and are versatile when it comes to kid crafts.
Today’s blog post is titled Popsicle Stick Owls and it’s just a basic popsicle stick frame, decorated to look like an owl. It’s super easy to make and completely customizable when it comes to colors & how you decorate it.
I think it’s the perfect fall craft but honestly it can be made all year long. Take for example, you can change up the colors to reflect white/blue for a winter owl or red/pink for a Valentine’s Day owl. The possibilities are endless – which makes it whoo-tastic! #gluedtomycrafts
Supplies:
* Popsicle Sticks
* Craft Feathers
* Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Scissors
* Orange/White Cardstock
Directions:
* First is the frame of your owl. Basically you are building/gluing together a fence. I did 11 next to each other and three going across, to make the base of the craft. {See first picture for example} Let the glue dry completely before moving on to the next step.
* Flip over the popsicle stick frame and have your child paint the front of it. Let the paint dry completely.
* Next cut out some embellishments for your owl {nose and eyes} and glue them onto the frame.
* Glue on feathers to each side, to finish it all off!
