This is one of the cutest craft tutorial I have designed in a long while and it’s easy enough to make with your kids!
Craft Supplies:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
- Blue Craft Paint
- White Craft Paint
- Paint Brushes
- Small Paper Plate
- School Glue
Directions:
- First things first – squirt your two craft paint colors on your paper plate.
- Now lay out your NINE popsicle sticks on your working surface.
- Divide them into two groups.
- Paint FIVE of the craft sticks white, while the remaining FOUR you will paint them blue.
- Once done painting, allow them to dry a bit.
- Next up – grab your school glue.
- Finish up the craft by gluing your NINE popsicle sticks together to look like a hat {7 next to each and two across on the bottom, in a rotating pattern} to represent the patterned colors of the hat. You want the rim of the hat to be TWO white painted popsicle sticks.
- Again, set aside to let it dry completely.
- Then add other embellishments {like glitter for a one-of-a-kind look} and display proudly for all to see!!!
