These little fairies are so cute, and your kids will love recreating them. Let them loose in your home today!
Hi friends! It’s been awhile since I’ve last posted on our website. I feel like I’ve stepped away from Glued To My Crafts for far too long but really it was only a month that I was on pause. Although it was such a short time, it feels like forever.
We are FINALLY settled in our new home in Nebraska and boy is it a change from Tampa, Florida.
It’s definitely back to a slower pace for sure here in the Omaha area.
I never thought I would say that I miss the hustle and bustle of big city life in Florida. I guess I have to get use to open roads and only a Walmart around – HA!
In all seriousness though, it’s not that bad but if you are so use to certain conveniences, it sure punches you in the face when it changes. On a plus, I have a Hobby Lobby down the road from my house. Haven’t seen one of those in quite some time and I took full advantage of it when we first arrived!
Anyways – today’s EXTRA SWEET strawberry fairy craft idea is actually something I was doodling and playing around with before we left Florida.
I played around with quite a few different designs and ultimately the normal “triangle shape” I use for our tutorials got completely scratched from my original intention.
After playing around with things in my new office space today {which is exciting to say!} it finally came together in my head and here we are today! I hope you see my vision and are inspired to recreate your own strawberry fairy princess with your crafty child today! I feel like it’s the perfect strawberry summer craft idea but let’s face it – this fruit themed fairy craft can be done ALL YEAR LONG if you like!
So let’s grab our supplies and throw some pixie dust in the air as we make these adorable & completely customizable strawberry fairies together! Then display as is OR set up shop for some “fairy” playtime in the living room. Whatever you do – you AND your child have fun with it!

Looking for a fun and easy craft project that kids will love? Look no further than these adorable popsicle stick strawberry fairies.
This simple project is perfect for a summer day, and the finished product is sure to brighten up any room. So get creative and have some fun!
Craft Supplies:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {4 per craft}
- Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per craft}
- Low Temp Glue Gun
- Small Paper Plate
- Red Craft Paint
- Black Craft Paint
- Large Foam Paint Brush
- Small Paint Brush
- Skin-Tone Cardstock Paper
- Green Cardstock Paper
- Basic Paper Scissors
- Black Sharpie Marker
- Green Sharpie Marker
- Red Sharpie Marker
- White Heart Doilies {2 per craft
- optional materials – small bows, glitter, rhinestones etc.
Directions:
- First get the glue gun hot and ready!
- Assemble the base of your strawberry fairy friend by gluing FOUR jumbo popsicle sticks and TWO mini popsicle sticks together to look like a door {4 next to each other and the mini popsicle sticks across}
- Set aside to let it dry completely.
- Repeat for each fairy craft friend you want to make today.
- Next up – grab your two craft paints, paint brushes and the small paper plate.
- Squirt some red and black craft paint on the paper plate.
- Using the larger paint brush, paint the newly made popsicle stick shape completely red.
- Follow that step up by painting several small black dots {in random order and all over} on the same popsicle stick shape, with the smaller paint brush. This will be the strawberry seeds and what ties the theme together.
- When done painting, set aside the painted wood piece so it can dry completely.
- Now grab ALL your sheets of cardstock paper and scissors.
- Cut out a circular head, a green collar piece, two long legs, boots etc. for your fairy friend.
- Take the various Sharpie markers and draw on eyes, hair, lips etc. on the circle head piece.
- Now go ahead and glue ALL the paper pieces you just made, to the front of the painted popsicle stick shape from earlier.
- Finally – the last step. Go ahead and hot glue TWO paper heart doilies to the back of the finished piece to represent the wings of the fairy. That’s it!
- Add any other embellishments you see fit.
- Then let it dry completely before displaying proudly for all to see!
