What kind of corn can you eat but never grows?
A: Candy corn.
Craft Supplies:
- Plastic Fork {clean but can be recycled}
- Orange, Black & Yellow Puffy Paint
- Small Paper Plate
- White Cardstock Paper
- Free CANDY CORN Printable {on box.com}
- Large Wiggle Eyes
- Loose Craft Glitter {in shades of gold or orange}

You can find ALL our favorite craft supplies via our AMAZON SHOP link!
Directions:
- First things first – print out the blank candy corn printable, listed above, on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per campfire craft.
- Now the next step is completely optional. Go ahead and cut out the candy corn shape & glue it to another piece of paper.
- Next up – squirt the YELLOW and ORANGE colored Tulip puffy craft paints on your small paper plate.
- Now take your fork, which is now your paint brush, to “color” in the candy corn design. Working from the bottom of the candy corn design, start with yellow and then orange in the middle. The top will stay blank.
- When ready, shake some loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint for some dimension and extra sparkle. Go ahead and shake off the excess when done.
- Finally – the last step of this fork painted candy corn is to glue some “eyes” and draw on a smile with the black puffy paint.
- When done decorating the paper, set it aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
