Paper Plate & Popsicle Stick Mushroom Fairy House - Kid Craft

Mushroom Fairy House Craft Idea

Hi friends! Welcome! Did you happen to see my latest contributor post I did for the Darice blog recently?

Well… the planning stages of that particular craft tutorial is what inspired my latest & greatest paper plate and popsicle stick mushroom fairy house kid craft idea that I’m sharing with you all today {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 theme, on the Glued To My Crafts website. Hence why I can’t stop coming up with new and unique fairy houses & fairy tutorials! Plus since the mushroom craze goes hand-and-hand with the fairy theme as well, I thought SMASHING them together would be perfect for some pretend play, spring decorations or even to be placed in your very own fairy garden. I just hope everything I present to you in this new tutorial from us, inspires you to create some magic of your own with your child this afternoon.

So on that note, if this dreamy fairy house art project sounds like something you would like to recreate, you can find EVERYTHING you need to know in the paper and craft stick tutorial below!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! BTW – when you recreate your own craft stick fairy house with mushroom roof today, come share pictures of it on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see. I can’t wait to admire your beautiful craft stick mushroom houses! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate & Popsicle Stick Mushroom Fairy House - Kid Craft Paper Plate & Popsicle Stick Mushroom Fairy House - Kid Craft

Make some magic with your kids today with this easy and fun popsicle stick fairy house craft idea!

Craft Supplies:

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {4 per mushroom craft}
  • Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per mushroom craft}
  • School Glue
  • Paper Craft Scissors
  • Small Paper Plate {1 makes TWO mushroom houses}
  • White Craft Paint
  • Red Craft Paint
  • TWO Foam Paint Brushes
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Black Cardstock Paper
  • Gray Cardstock Paper
  • Black Sharpie Marker
  • optional materials – small paper heart punch

Directions:

  • First assemble the base of your mushroom house. This step is done by laying four jumbo popsicle sticks next to each other, then gluing the two remaining mini popsicle sticks the opposite direction, to create a fence shape.
  • Set aside your popsicle stick shape to allow it to dry completely.
  • While that is drying – grab your small paper plate and scissors.
  • Cut the paper plate straight up the center to make two equal halves.
  • Grab one half for your mushroom house and save the other for a rainy day {or to repeat this craft later!}
  • Now grab your red craft paint and foam paint brush.
  • Squirt some paint on the paper plate half.
  • Use one of your paint brushes to paint the paper plate piece completely red.
  • While the paint is still wet, go ahead and either punch out or cut out a few small hearts from the white cardstock.
  • Lay those pieces on the wet paper plate, to give the mushroom some dimension. If they don’t stick, use some school glue.
  • Now set aside the paper plate piece till the last step.
  • Go ahead and now grab your popsicle stick shape from earlier, along with the white craft paint & another paint brush.
  • Squirt some white craft paint directly onto the assembled wood piece.
  • Use the paint brush to paint it completely white.
  • Again, set it aside to allow the paint to dry completely.
  • On to the last few steps – grab the remaining cardstock sheets, your scissors again and your black Sharpie marker.
  • Cut out a small door, some windows, chimney etc. for your fairy house.
  • Use the marker to draw on dimension on each piece {like window panes, door knob, chimney bricks etc.}
  • To finish off the Popsicle Stick Mushroom House – glue the “roof” which is the paper plate piece, to the top of the painted popsicle stick shape.
  • Follow that up by gluing the remaining paper pieces in place {FYI – the chimney goes on the back of the paper plate roof half!}
  • Then set aside again to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
  • Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
