It’s a cinch and I’ll show you how! Check out the full tutorial below and craft these up for Valentine’s Day and/or your upcoming spring celebrations. Happy crafting, my friends!!!

Supplies:

* Glue
* Paint Brushes
* Pink Craft Paint
* Small Red Paper Heart Doilies {affiliate link}
* Wiggle Eyes
* Gold Pipe Cleaners
optional – glitter, sequins, feather etc.

Directions:

* First have children paint their popsicle stick completely pink {or any color they like!} This is the body of the dragonfly. Repeat for each one you want to make.
* Now grab TWO paper heart doilies and glue them to the center/back of the popsicle stick to represent the wings. At this time, go ahead and also glue on the wiggle eyes & bent pipe cleaner that looks like antennas.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Dragonflies – have children add other embellishments they see fit and set it all aside to let it dry completely. Then once dry, display proudly OR use in creative imaginative play!
