Popsicle Stick Christmas Mail Truck – Kid Craft

I think we all can agree, the US Postal Service is pretty important during the holiday season. Let’s just say every mail truck and delivery person on the road during the Christmas season, is a trusty helper of Santa :-)

On that note, I was recently on a mission to share a popsicle stick craft idea centered around mail trucks. That’s what landed me here today and I hope I accomplished the mission pretty well! Do you see my vision?

If you would like to recreate this crafty idea, please check out our Popsicle Stick Christmas Mail Truck tutorial below, to see how you can make a postal truck from basic wooden craft sticks, craft paint, paper and glue! Really easy materials that will help you DRIVE right into the Christmas spirit!

It’s going to be a HIT in your home – I just know it! Plus you can turn your finished trucks into ornaments for the tree or use them for some pretend play in a Christmas village you might have set up in your home. Whatever you do – I hope it all started right here from Glued To My Crafts!

Happy crafting, my friends! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your holiday postal trucks made from craft sticks on our Facebook page, for us to admire! #gluedtomycrafts

Directions:

* First grab your EIGHT jumbo popsicle sticks and school glue.
* Lay four next to each other {like a fence} one by one, on a flat surface.
* Now grab your remaining popsicle sticks and start gluing them the other direction on top of the four sticks like you are about to make a square {please use our pictures for an example.}
* Once all the popsicle sticks are glued together, set the shape aside to let it all dry completely.
* Repeat for each mail truck you want to make today.
* While that is drying, grab all your colored cardstock sheets and scissors.
* Out of the gray cardstock cut out a small rectangle for the window.
* Out of the black cardstock cut out TWO small circular wheels.
* Out of the yellow cardstock cut out a small, half circle headlight for the front of the mail truck.
* Set all the paper pieces side till later.
* Now grab your popsicle stick shape, paper plate, paint brushes and craft paints.
* Squirt some white paint on the paper plate.
* Paint the popsicle stick shape completely white.
* Now grab the red and blue craft paint.
* Use a small paint brush to draw a line of each color on the popsicle stick shape so it gives the look of a postal truck.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Christmas Mail Truck, go ahead and use the school glue to glue the cardstock pieces in place, as well as any other embellishments you see fit {the wreath and Santa stickers are from Michaels!}
* When done, set it all aside to allow it to dry completely.
* Then display or play with proudly!
