Popsicle Stick Ballerinas

Popsicle Stick Ballerinas

Craft Stick Ballerinas w/Cupcake Liner Tutus

Inspired by our recent experience at the local ballet {which was so much fun!} today’s Popsicle Stick Ballerinas is for the little girls and dancers in your life!

I admit it. My son had NOTHING to do with this particular blog post and I’m so glad I have something “girly” to share in the kids craft department {although boys will love making these as well!}

So let’s grab our supplies and “dance” into craft heaven with these adorable & completely customizable wood stick ballerinas! Then display as is OR use them in some creative imaginative play in your living room today. Whatever you do – I hope you have fun making these ballerina dancers come to life from craft sticks!

Happy crafting my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your ballerinas made from craft sticks and cupcake liners on our Facebook page to admire! I can’t wait to see how you customize our easy craft! #gluedtomycrafts

Popsicle Stick BallerinasPopsicle Stick Ballerinas

Craft Supplies:

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
  • Pipe Cleaners
  • Cupcake Liners
  • School Glue
  • Paint Pens {or markers}
  • optional materials – rhinestones, glitter, glitter glue

The Instructions:

  • First have children flatten/fold their cupcake liners in half and glue them to the center of their popsicle stick. This is the ballerina’s skirt.
  • Repeat for each ballerina puppet you are making today.
  • Once the cupcake liners are down, grab your paint pens and draw on a face, hair and of course – ballet shoes onto the popsicle stick.
  • If desired, glue on a “hairbow” paper punch out to finish the glamorous look.
  • To finish off the cupcake liner and craft stick ballerina puppet, have children wrap/bend a single pipe cleaner a few times around the center of the popsicle sticks to resemble the ballerina’s arms.
  • At this point children can also add other embellishments {like scrapbook stickers, glitter, rhinestones} that they see fit to really make it their own.
  • Then display and/or play with proudly!
  • BTW – this craft would be great for Christmas as well! Pair it with the Nutcracker play or turn it into a popsicle stick ballerina ornament for the tree!
