Did you happen to see my latest contributor post for the Darice blog?

Well the planning stages of that particular post is what inspired today’s popsicle stick Mushroom Fairy House kid craft idea! {Isn’t it awesome when an idea sparks even MORE craftiness along the way?!}

Since fairies seem to be all the rave right now, I really wanted to capitalize on that on Glued To My Crafts.

And with this mushroom themed idea being perfect for pretend play, spring decorations or even to be placed in your very own fairy garden – I hope it inspires you to create some magic of your own!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Find all the crafty details below! #gluedtomycrafts

Mushroom House Supplies:

* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per mushroom}
* Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per mushroom}
* School Glue
* Yellow/White Craft Paint
* Paint Brushes
* Red Cardstock
* Scissors

Directions:

* First assemble the base of your mushroom. This step is done by laying the three jumbo popsicle sticks next to each other, then gluing the two mini popsicle sticks on top to create a fence. Set aside and repeat for each craft.
* Now you are ready for the TOP of the mushroom. Cut out a half moon shape from the red cardstock. Glue it to the popsicle stick base.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Mushroom Fairy House – paint on white dots on the red cardstock, as well as windows and a door on the popsicle stick piece. Then set aside again to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
