Craft Felt & Paper Plate Apple

Fall is officially here and apples are commonly associated with this time of year. With all that being said – that’s exactly what inspired this simple Paper Plate Felt Covered Apple craft idea!

It’s a simple cut and paste craft that is beautiful on a small budget and fun for children of ALL ages. Teachers can even use this idea in a classroom setting and later turn them into decor for a back-to-school bulletin board!

Whatever you decide to do with your finished apple craft, I hope you enjoyed making it with your little one today! Happy crafting, my friends!
