Back To School Notebook Paper Craft Idea For Kids
It’s the simplest back to school kid craft idea inspired by notebook paper. YES you read that correctly – NOTEBOOK PAPER!
I took our basic popsicle stick shape {that we have used so many times on Glued To My Crafts now} and designed it to mimic lined notebook paper. I’m tickled pink on this one because it’s a FIRST SEEN HERE and completely original to our website!
Do you see my vision in this Notebook Paper art project idea? I hope so! And if this is something you want to recreate with your child today, keep on scrolling to learn the full how-to!
BTW – you should also check out our original Popsicle Stick Book craft tutorial that is VERY similar to today’s post.
Well… I’ll let you get to it! Happy crafting my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your note book craft creations with us! You can ALWAYS tag us on Facebook or Instagram for easy sharing! I can’t wait to see what you make with your young crafter in the days leading to the first day back! #gluedtomycrafts
