Mini Popsicle Sticks – 2 per craft
Mini Clothespins – 2 per craft
Low Temp Glue Gun
Craft Paint
Small Paint Brush
Small Paper Plate
Cardstock Paper
Sharpie Markers
Embellishments

Directions:

Now that you have everything ready, it’s time to craft!

Begin by heating up the glue gun (adult supervision recommended).
Create the base for your by gluing three jumbo popsicle sticks side by side. Then, glue two mini popsicle sticks across them horizontally to form a door-like shape. Singing Caroler
Set the base aside to dry completely. Repeat this step for each caroler you plan to make.
Once the glue is fully set, squeeze some craft paint onto a paper plate.
Use a paintbrush to fully coat the popsicle stick base in paint—this will serve as the body of your caroler. Allow it to dry completely.
Next, paint two mini clothespins to resemble the caroler’s sleeves or arms. Set them aside to dry as well.
Now, grab your cardstock, paper scissors, and Sharpie markers.
Start by cutting out a large circle from the skin-tone cardstock to create the caroler’s head. Use the Sharpies to draw facial features like eyes, a nose, hair, and an open “O” shaped mouth.
From the white cardstock, cut a small rectangle to represent the sheet music. Decorate it with music stickers or draw music notes by hand using a black Sharpie if stickers aren’t available.
If you’re making a female caroler, cut long hair pieces from cardstock as well. Set all these paper components aside, except for the music sheet.
Now for an important step: take your two painted mini clothespins and clip them onto the music sheet, one on each side, to make it look like the caroler is holding the sheet music.
Use hot glue to attach the combined clothespins and music sheet to the center of the painted popsicle stick base.
Finish assembling your by gluing the paper head to the top of the base. If you’ve created a hairpiece, attach it to the back of the head. Popsicle Stick Caroler
Add any other embellishments or decorations you like to personalize your caroler.
Allow everything to dry completely before proudly displaying your creation.
