Apple Pie Popsicle Stick Slice Craft Idea For Kids
At Glued To My Crafts, we have been inspired by desserts a lot in the past five years. We have a pretty popular pumpkin pie post, as well as a paper donut craft tutorial that does well throughout the year. WE just LOVE turning sweet treats into pretty awesome craft ideas.
So are you ready to learn more about our latest apple pie themed one? For this DIY we used basic jumbo popsicle sticks, cardstock paper, a few dabs of glue and white cotton balls to make it come together. That’s it! Sounds easy, right?
Best part is it’s calorie free and you “make” it over & over again – on the fly & cheap without breaking out the mixer or turning on a stove!
So friends… enough chit chat from me! Let’s bake up some crafty fun with our tutorial below!
Happy crafting my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your apple pie 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 little crafter today! #gluedtomycrafts
