Chalk Fairy Craft Supplies:

• Various Colors of Sharpie Markers {affiliate link}
• Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – one per fairy craft
• School Glue or Glue Stick
• Black or Gray Colored Cardstock Paper – one sheet per fairy craft
• Sidewalk Chalk {affiliate link}
• Baby Wipes
• Optional Embellishments – small bows, glitter, star stickers etc.

Directions:

• First things first – grab your jumbo popsicle stick and the various colors of markers.
• Decorate the stick to make it look like a fairy. Add eyes, lips, hair, shoes etc. Just make sure you don’t push to hard so the marker doesn’t bleed.
• When done decorating the popsicle stick, set it aside for a bit.
• Next grab your black or gray colored paper, along with your choice of colors in chalk.
• Start envisioning the fairy’s wings on the paper and draw them out with the chalk. My best suggestion is do draw a large, four petal flower in the center of the cardstock. Then build from there.
• Add as much or as little chalk & color as you like.
• When done with the chalk, use baby wipes to clean off your fingers.
• Next grab your decorated jumbo popsicle stick from earlier and your choice of adhesive.
• Glue your wood piece into the center of the chalk lines you just made.
• Add any other embellishments you see fit {maybe some glitter or some star stickers for a night sky.}
• Then display your custom one-of-a-kind paper and chalk fairy piece proudly for all to see!

Make It Your Own:

Did you know you can dip your chalk in water to make the colors more vibrant on your paper? Yup! Just set a small dish with tap water on the table, dip the chalk in it for a few seconds and then draw on the paper the same way as before.

At Glued To My Crafts, we have a “knack” for stepping outside the craft box. It’s kind-of what we strive to do with our website.
