Popsicle Stick “F” is for Flamingo

“F” is for flamingo and today’s popsicle stick kid craft idea is the PERFECT way to reinforce that idea!

Inspired by my son {I’m trying to step up his letter recognition at home} today I’m sharing another kid friendly summer activity that is SUPER simple for kids and adults of all ages to pull together for some awesome craft time!

This Popsicle Stick Flamingo craft tutorial is pretty easy AND completely customizable too! And it’s just that – an “F” that we turned into an adorable flamingo. Then decorate with various embellishments to really create a one-of-a-kind friend! Super fun – right?!

Now let’s grab our craft supplies and get to the step-by-step tutorial below!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your craft stick flamingo creations on our Facebook wall to admire from afar! #gluedtomycrafts
