Have kids who are bored and need a creative outlet? Here’s how to make the fork painted fireplace craft, so they can express their artistic side.
Craft Supplies:
- Fireplace Printable – on our landing page
- White Cardstock Paper
- Orange Craft Paint
- Plastic Fork
- Small Paper Plate
- Baby Wipes
- Loose Craft Glitter
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
- Brown Craft Paint
- Small Paint Brush
- School Glue
Directions:
- First print out the Christmas Fireplace printable, in color, on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You need one print per Christmas craft.
- Next grab your orange craft paint, the fork and the small paper plate.
- Squirt some craft paint on the paper plate.
- Go ahead and rub the plastic fork in the orange paint.
- Next, using the plastic fork, make several “flames” inside the fireplace design on your cardstock paper. Add as much or as little as you like. Just keep dipping the plastic fork in the paint and then on the paper.
- When done with the above step, go ahead and shake on some loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint on the paper.
- Set aside the paper piece for now.
- Now grab your two jumbo popsicle sticks and the brown craft paint.
- Go ahead and paint one side of each popsicle stick completely brown. These are now your fireplace logs.
- To finish off the paper fireplace craft, glue the two painted sticks {in an “X” shape} inside the fireplace design.
- Add any other embellishments you see fit.
- Then allow your piece to dry completely before you display it proudly!
