We are driving by with another unique and first-seen-here kid craft idea on Glued To My Crafts! Today we are presenting this Popsicle Stick Christmas Mail Truck tutorial and we hope you are inspired to recreate one of your own, with your child today!

Keep scrolling for the full how-to and inspiration!

This popsicle stick Christmas mail truck is a unique and fun way to get your kids into the holiday spirit!

It’s a great craft idea that they can help make, and it will be a memorable addition to your Christmas decorations.

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 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

• Squirt some white paint on the paper plate.
• Paint the popsicle stick shape completely white.
