Lollipop Photo Ornament

This paper plate lollipop ornament craft idea is pretty easy to put together, great for all ages and really inexpensive too!

Craft Supplies:

Large or Small Paper Plate {one per lollipop craft}
Craft Paint {either a shade of green or red}
Foam Paint Brush
Colorful Loose Craft Glitter
Puffy Paint {either a shade of green or red}
Glitter Cardstock Paper
Basic Craft Scissors
4×6″ Printed Picture
Hot Glue Gun
Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {one per lollipop craft}
Twine or Ribbon
optional materials – sequins, rhinestones, stickers etc.

Directions:

First things first – paint the entire paper plate whatever color you like. Just squirt some paint in the center and use the foam brush to move it around. Since this is a Christmas craft, I highly suggest a shade of red or green BUT honestly you can do ANY color you like!
Next up, while the craft paint is still wet, shake some loose craft glitter on top. Shake off excess.
Now get the glue gun hot and ready!
Grab your scissors and 4×6″ picture.
Cut out a large circle out of the picture and glue it down in the center of the painted paper plate.
Now it’s time to hot glue the JUMBO popsicle stick and a piece of twine to the back of the decorated paper plate, so it will hang nicely on the tree.
To finish off the Paper Plate Christmas Lollipop Ornament kid craft, cut out a little “ruffle” design for the wrapper out of the cardstock paper and hot glue that in place. At this point in time you can add some squiggles of puffy paint and add other embellishments you see fit.
When done decorating, allow it to dry completely.
Then display proudly for all to see!
