PAIR YOUR ACORN CRAFT WITH —> Fall Acorn Friend Puppets – Fall Kid Craft Idea w/Freebie

The Acorn Craft Supplies:

* Gold Twine {or any other color you might have}
* Wooden Scoop Sticks – one per acorn craft
* Wood Oval Plaques – one per acorn craft {ours are 3″ x 4.5″ from Hobby Lobby but these are similar}
* Brown Craft Paint
* Foam Paint Brush
* Brown Cardstock Paper
* Craft Scissors

Directions:

* First you will want to paint your wood pieces brown {one oval and one scoop stick per acorn} Set aside to let them dry completely.
* Next glue your scoop stick to one end of the oval piece. This will be the acorn’s stem.
* Now get your twine ready! Glue the beginning section in the center of the wood piece. Carefully – have children wrap the twine over and over again, until the center is completely covered. Secure it.
* To finish off the Twine Wrapped Acorns – cut out a top piece for the acorn from the brown cardstock. Glue it your wood piece. Set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!!!
