Popsicle Stick Cats In Sweaters - Kid Craft

Popsicle Stick Cats In Sweaters - Kid Craft

You should know, I’m not at all a cat person {even though my husband often says I was a cat in my former life.} We have never owned a cat and probably never will. I can’t say cats are my favorite…

So on that note, I’m actually not really sure where the inspiration for this particular cat themed kids craft tutorial came from. It was just one of those ideas where I was sitting on the couch and one thing led to another & somehow I was led to my craft table where these cats in sweaters were born. I honestly wish sometimes I could bottle up my creativity and sell it!

Anyways – I thought the finished sweater art project was super cute and it was worthy to be put on Glued To My Crafts today. I hope you see my vision for these Popsicle Stick Cats In Sweaters Puppets and are inspired to recreate them with your child as well! Wouldn’t they be great for some pretend puppet play this afternoon?

Although I hope you have the urge to make adorable feline friends everyday of the year, I could see this being a fun winter and/or Christmas craft so be sure to bookmark this particular post for the future. I went with more neutral colors for my cats but couldn’t you see green & red yarn being fun for the holidays?!

Now enough chit chat – what are you waiting for?! Let’s grab some EXTRA JUMBO popsicle sticks and some colorful yarn to create some cats in sweaters puppets today! I wanna see pictures so don’t forget to tag us on Facebook or use our special branded #gluedtomycrafts hashtag for us to see!

Happy crafting my friends and hopefully your crafty plans are PURR-FECT!

Brighten your child’s day by setting up this Popsicle Stick Cats craft idea on the kitchen table today! It’s PURR-FECT!

Craft Supplies:

Before starting your kitten craft adventure, gather these supplies:

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per craft
  • Mini Popsicle Sticks – 2 per craft
  • Low Temp Glue Gun
  • Craft Yarn
  • Basic Craft Scissors
  • Cardstock Paper
  • Black Sharpie Marker
  • Small Wiggle Eyes
  • Embellishments

Directions:

Ensure you have a well-prepared workspace before beginning this cat craft project:

  • First things first – get the glue gun hot and ready.
  • Assemble the base of your cat friend by gluing THREE jumbo popsicle sticks and TWO mini popsicle sticks together to look like a fence door {3 next to each other and the mini popsicle sticks across to secure in place.}
  • Allow it to dry completely. Repeat for each feline friend you want to make.
  • Now grab your craft yarn, the popsicle stick shape you just made and your craft scissors.
  • Take one end of your yarn and hot glue it to the back of your popsicle stick cat body shape.
  • Start wrapping the yarn SEVERAL times around the popsicle stick base, until you have the look you like.
  • When ready, cut the yarn and use the hot glue gun again, to secure the loose end to the back of the popsicle stick base.
  • Now grab your cardstock, marker and scissors.
  • Cut out a large circle w/triangle ears, that will become the face of the cat. At this time you should also cut out a tail and whatever you think the craft needs.
  • Take the black Sharpie marker and draw on the mouth & some embellishments on his feet for some added dimension.
  • Now go ahead and glue ALL the paper pieces to the yarn wrapped popsicle stick shape from earlier.
  • Don’t forget to hot glue some wiggle eyes on so he can see.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit.
  • Then let it dry completely before displaying proudly!!!
  • Don’t forget to snap a few pictures of your finished popsicle stick cats in sweaters creations to share with us! #gluedtomycrafts

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
