Paper & Twigs Owls In The Night – Kid Craft Tutorial

Inspired by nature and my current love of owls – today I present to YOU our Simple Mixed Media Night Owl kid craft idea!

Using tree branch sticks we found in our very own backyard {hello FREE!} I was recently inspired to make a “night owl” scene with just some tissue paper, school glue and wiggle eyes. Nothing elaborate so it’s easy-peasy for younger kids and super inexpensive too!

I hope we inspire YOU and your child to recreate our quick and easy crafty idea! You can find ALL the details you need to know, in the full tutorial located below!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your finished owls in the night creations with us on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see! #gluedtomycrafts

Night Owl Craft Supplies:

* Black Cardstock
* Orange Cardstock
* Light Brown Cardstock
* Yellow Cardstock
* Craft Scissors
* White Tissue Paper
* School Glue
* Small Twigs/Branches from outside
* Small Wiggle Eyes
* White Chalk

Directions:

* Using a single sheet of black cardstock as your background, have children add torn tissue paper “snow” to the bottom of the page, as well as gluing the “twig” trees coming from that.
* Go ahead and cut out some small leaves from the brown cardstock & glue those in place as well.
* Once that is done, add your owls in the scene by gluing down wiggle eyes and triangular cardstock noses in various spots.
* Finish off your Simple Mixed Media Owls In The Night craft, by gluing on a yellow cardstock moon in the corner and drawing on ears on the owls with the white chalk.
* Then add other embellishments {maybe some star stickers or glitter} before allowing it to dry completely and displaying proudly!!!
