Recreating this popsicle stick owl on a branch tutorial is the perfect way to encourage creativity and enjoy the fall season with kids. With simple materials, hands-on customization, and fall-inspired colors, this project offers hours of fun and a keepsake that celebrates the beauty of autumn.

Craft Supplies:

Before we begin crafting, make sure you have all the supplies ready. This project uses common, inexpensive materials, many of which you may already have on hand. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 1 per craft
  • Mini Popsicle Sticks – 4 per craft
  • Craft Paint
  • Paint Brushes
  • Paper Plate
  • School Glue
  • Scissors
  • Cardstock Paper
  • Small Wiggle Eyes

Directions:

  • First things first – if you are going to paint your popsicle sticks, do that first.
  • Squirt your craft paint on your paper plate and paint your craft sticks however you like. I left my jumbo stick the natural color but I painted my minis in a burnt orange color.
  • When done, set them aside to allow them to dry completely.
  • Next up – cutting out your paper embellishments from the cardstock.
  • Start off with the leaves and then the branches.
  • Finish off with the wings of the owl and of course, a triangle nose, ears, feet etc. Use our pictures for an example.
  • Finally the last step – assembling it all. Grab all your popsicle sticks, cardstock paper pieces, the wiggle eyes and school glue.
  • First glue the five MINI painted popsicle sticks, in a row like a square, onto the jumbo popsicle stick. This will be the body of the owl and if you can envision it at this point, the jumbo stick is the tree branch.
  • Follow that step up by gluing on all his paper body features so he can start to come to life.
  • Don’t forget his eyes!
  • Now the last gluing step – the leaves and little stick tree branches. Glue those in the empty spaces on the jumbo popsicle stick.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit.
  • Set it aside to let it dry completely before you display it proudly.
  • Don’t forget to snap those pictures and share them with us! #gluedtomycrafts

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!
