Valentine Fox Craft Using A Paper Plate
Hi crafty friends! Have you been staying warm?
It’s been a winter wonderland in Wyoming lately, packed with tons of snow & below zero temps.
Sounds super fun, right? Can we just skip to spring already??? Well – enough chit chat because it’s time to get down to business and probably the real reason why you are here.
Today I’m adding another craft idea to our Valentine’s Day archives and it’s titled Paper Plate Valentine Fox. It’s another simple idea that even the youngest little crafter can make it happen!
Just like ALL our kid friendly tutorials – this tissue paper Valentine fox craft is super fun, inexpensive and great for children of all ages. You can even change up the colors and add your own embellishments to really make it your own {similar to our Dr Seuss post on our website!}
So what are you waiting for? Stop being ‘foxy’ and grab your supplies & get to work! Find all the details you need to know below, so you can make a Valentine inspired fox out a paper plate and tissue paper as well!
