Popsicle Stick Princess Puppet – Kid Craft Idea For Story Time

Today’s Popsicle Stick Princess Kid Craft is simply picture-perfect for those little crafty gals in your life!

These beautiful craft stick princess creations are made from inexpensive jumbo popsicle sticks, school glue and colored paper. That’s it! Super easy art supplies! From there, you can raid your craft stash for craft glitter, rhinestones, stickers etc. and make them as custom as you like!

Each finished princess piece can be used as one-of-a-kind decor in your home or in your child’s creative imaginative pretend puppet play! I could even see these being used as props in a fairy garden or string added to the back as a Christmas ornament on the tree! So many ways to take it, I just hope I sparked some ideas within you!

So enough chit chat from me – you can find ALL the details below. Follow that up by grabbing your craft supplies and getting ready to dream up the most beautiful & completely customizable princesses with your child today! Then display as is OR set up shop for some “magical” playtime in the living room.

Whatever you decide to do with your princess creations, I hope you AND your child have fun with it! Remember – adults are ALWAYS encouraged to join in on the crafty fun so don’t sit on the sidelines!

Happy crafting my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your finished craft stick princess friends on the Glued To My Crafts Facebook page, for us to see! #gluedtomycrafts
