Popsicle Stick Fruit – Craft Idea For Summer!


Popsicle Stick Fruit - Craft Idea For Summer!

Fruit Made Out of Popsicle Sticks

Hi friends!!! Did you know that you could be make anything {and I mean ANYTHING} out a of a basic popsicle stick frame??? Yup – and I’m here to vouch for that statement by sharing our simple Popsicle Stick Fruit craft tutorial with you all today!

Not only did we recently make some fun fruit shapes out of some basic & inexpensive popsicle sticks BUT it was also a great learning exercise for my son since we identified various colors & features that made each fruit UNIQUE!

So enough of the boring “fluff” and useless big words with lengthy descriptions – let’s get straight to the fun by diving into this EASY tutorial for Popsicle Stick Fruits. I just hope my post inspires and sparks tons of “fruity” craft time with you & your child today!

Happy crafting my friends! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your pretend fruit pieces made from popsicle sticks on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see them in action! #gluedtomycrafts

Popsicle Stick Fruit - Craft Idea For Summer!

Looking for a fun and easy craft project to keep the kids busy this summer? Check out our popsicle stick fruit tutorial!

Craft Supplies:

  • Wooden Popsicle Sticks {regular & mini size}
  • School Glue
  • Various Colors of Craft Paint
  • Paint Brushes
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Kid Friendly Craft Scissors
  • Colored Cardstock Paper
  • Pen or Marker

Directions:

These directions will give you a popsicle stick pineapple, strawberry, blueberry, orange and apple. Don’t feel limited by our tutorial. I highly encourage you to build off of our ideas!

  • First assemble the base of your fruit. Although we did several different fruits – they all had the same basic frame. For each, simply glue your popsicle sticks together to look like a fence. Set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Next have your child paint the front of the popsicle stick fences for their desired fruit.
  • For The Strawberry – Red w/black dots
  • For The Blueberry – Blue
  • For The Orange – Orange
  • For The Pineapple – Yellow w/black dots
  • For The Apple – Red or Green
  • Now cut out the cardstock embellishments to give your pieces life.
  • For The Strawberry – Some small green leaves.
  • For The Blueberry – Brown cardstock for the stem
  • For The Orange – Brown stem and green leaf
  • For The Pineapple – Trace your child’s hand on green cardstock for the pineapple top
  • For The Apple – Brown stem and green leaf
  • To finish off the Popsicle Stick Fruit craft, glue on the paper embellishments and let it all dry completely, before displaying proudly by either hanging them or adding magnets to the back!
