Craft Supplies:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
- Black Craft Paint
- Brown Craft Paint
- Foam Paint Brushes
- Small Paper Plate
- Hot Glue Gun
- Black Cardstock Paper
- White Cardstock Paper
- Scissors
- Plastic Centipede Party Favors
Directions:
- First things first – grab your NINE jumbo popsicle sticks, craft paint, paper plate and paint brushes.
- Squirt the TWO paint colors on the paper plate.
- Paint TWO of the jumbo popsicle sticks black, while the remaining SEVEN, a dark brown.
- Set them aside to allow the paint to dry completely.
- When the paint is dry enough to the touch, get your glue gun hot and ready.
- Lay your seven painted popsicle sticks next to each other, in a row.
- Take the two remaining popsicle sticks and glue them the opposite direction on one side, for the “binding” of the book.
- Now you are ready for the customization. Grab your plastic bugs, as well as the colored cardstock and scissors.
- Cut out various paper embellishments, like our eyeball clasp and spell book wording.
- Go ahead and glue those in place on the popsicle stick shape.
- Now take the plastic bugs and hot glue those, anywhere you like, onto the book shape. Since the bugs are made out of plastic, you should be able to cut them apart as well. I felt like my bugs looked like stitching, as well gibing it a creepy Halloween feel.
- To finish off the Popsicle Stick Spell Book – add anything else you see fit and allow it to dry completely.
- Then display it proudly for ALL to see!
