Spring Picket Fence Craft Idea Using Popsicle Sticks
Hi my crafty readers! Is spring in full swing where you are?
We are experiencing some cold temperatures here in Wyoming but for the most part, I can’t complain too much because it’s been absolutely gorgeous & surprisingly warm around here.
They are saying Cheyenne, WY is going to set a record for NOT having enough snow this month {say what???} Again, I can’t complain but I really hope that doesn’t mean an awful summer for us!
Now let’s get to this Popsicle Stick Picket Fence craft tutorial, shall we?
Like always – this kid friendly tutorial of ours is super easy to assemble, inexpensive when it comes to the supplies and of course, great for children of all ages.
Although I’m showcasing this as spring kids craft idea today, it could be easily crafted up all year long! Plus there is no real rules to it, so kids can really let their imagination go wild as they build their own white picket fence!
So what are waiting for? The grass isn’t getting any greener on the other side so let’s grab those craft supplies and get to work on recreating it!
Find all the crafty and supply list details below! Happy crafting, my friends and don’t forget to share pictures of your picket fence made from wood craft sticks, on our Facebook page for us to admire! #gluedtomycrafts
