Holy Guacamole – it’s so EASY! I promise you are going to LOVE this Paper Avocado Friend kid craft idea from Glued To My Crafts!

Keep scrolling for the full how-to from us!

Today’s paper avocado craft idea is just something quirky I came up with this afternoon. Honestly, there really was no “vision” behind it. I was just playing around in my craft space and before I knew it, it was something I couldn’t resist sharing with you all. So on that note, hopefully you see my vision in it and want to recreate it as well! I could easily see this being an easy craft idea for the littles in your home!

To create my pear-shaped friend, all I did was take simple brown cardstock paper, some lime green tissue paper and some glue school to pull it together. Basically I mashed a few craft supplies I already had on hand {and you probably do too} to create this paper avocado friend within minutes.

So friends – enough chit chat from me! Let’s SMASH up our creativity juices and make some one-of-kind quac-themed pieces together! Find all the details and the full tutorial below!

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your handmade paper avocado pieces with us! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Avocado Friend Craft Supplies:

• Brown Cardstock
• Kraft Brown Cardstock
• Lime Green Tissue Paper
• Paper Craft Scissors
• School Glue
• Large Wiggle Eyes
• Black Sharpie Marker

Directions:

• First things first – take your scissors and cut the brown cardstock into a large pear shape.
• Discard excess paper.
• Grab your lime green tissue paper and cut a handful of green 1″ inch squares from it.
• Now take your school glue and draw several squiggles of glue in the inside of the pear shaped paper.
• Lay the tissue paper squares on top of the glue, until the inside {aka – the inside of the avocado} is filled in.
• Add more glue and tissue paper as you see fit.
• Now grab the kraft colored cardstock.
• Cut out a LARGE circle for the avocado pit.
• Glue that piece in place on the tissue paper covered shape.
• FINALLY – glue one some wiggle eyes and draw on a smile with the black Sharpie marker to complete the paper avocado friend craft.
• Then let it all dry completely before you display it proudly for ALL to see!
