We are keeping the FALL THEMED crafts fresh this year on Glued To My Crafts and today we are adding this Craft Stick Leaf Holding Fox craft tutorial to the website archives!

I just hope you love it as much as I do and are inspired to recreate some of your own foxy friends for the autumn season, with your child today! #gluedtomycrafts

Orange Fox Puppet Made With Craft Sticks

Fall will be fast approaching soon and I hope you love ALL the crafty goodness that I have planned and will be adding to our website soon. Till then – I’m kick-starting the fun with today’s Popsicle Stick Leaf Holding Fox tutorial that just “might” be the ONE for you to recreate with your child this season. My hope is that you bookmark {or PIN!} this particular post right now!

Now imagine yourself pulling together the BEST art project for your child today. This very leaf holding fox post.

It’s got my favorite craft medium {jumbo popsicle sticks} and that warm fall feel. It’s honestly perfect for the season we are heading into {especially since August is nearly over!}

My favorite part? The fact that these craft stick fox creations are holding a small decorative leaf in their clothespin “hands.” I mean – hello?! It doesn’t get any cuter than that!

Now what are you waiting for?! You can find all the crafty details below and recreate it with your child today. Maybe even make it your mission to change up the colors and/or change up the decorative piece each fox is holding. You could place a paper cutout of a pumpkin in the center or maybe even a small note for someone to read. So many possibilities on this one! I hope you run with it!

Just one last note – I highly suggest this craft for the older children in your home since a glue gun is involved. Other than that – this fox craft tutorial is super easy, just like ALL the tutorials you can find on Glued To My Crafts right now!

Happy crafting, my friends! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your leaf holding fox pieces with us! Find us on Facebook or use our branded hashtag #gluedtomycrafts for us to see!

KEEP THE CRAFTY FUN GOING WITH —> Fox Craft Ideas For Kids

Craft Supplies:

Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per fox craft}
Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per fox craft}
Mini Clothespins {2 per fox craft}
Low Temp Glue Gun
Burnt Orange Craft Paint
Dark Brown Craft Paint
Small Paint Brushes
Small Decorative Plastic Leaves {I found my felt ones at Dollar Tree}
Brown Cardstock Paper
White Cardstock Paper
Basic Paper Scissors
Black Sharpie Marker
Small Brown Pom Pom {1 per monkey craft}
optional materials – stickers, glitter, rhinestones etc.

Directions:

First get the glue gun hot and ready!
Assemble the base of your fox friend by gluing THREE jumbo popsicle sticks and TWO mini popsicle sticks together to look like a fence {3 next to each other and the mini popsicle sticks across}
Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat for each foxy friend you want to make.
When dry enough, go ahead and paint your newly made popsicle stick shape completely with the burnt orange craft paint.
Go ahead and also paint your TWO mini clothespins with the dark craft brown paint, as well.
Set all the painted pieces aside.
Now grab your brown cardstock. Cut out TWO small pointy triangle ears for your fox.
Go ahead and also cut out his tail.
Grab your white cardstock and cut out a larger triangle for his face, as well as a small section for the tail, to give it dimension.
Take the black Sharpie marker and draw on TWO eyes on the white triangle piece.
Now go ahead and glue ALL the paper pieces to the painted popsicle stick shape from earlier.
This next step is CRUCIAL. Take your TWO painted mini clothespins and pinch them around the decorative fall leaves to look like hands/arm holding it.
Go ahead and hot glue the combined piece you just made, to the center of the painted popsicle stick shape.
To finish off the Popsicle Stick Leaf Holding Fox craft, hot glue your paper fox tail to the back of the popsicle stick shape, as well as the pom pom nose.
Add any other embellishments you see fit.
Then let it dry completely before displaying proudly!!!
