Mushroom Gnome Craft Idea For Kids

Follow our simple steps below to create this unique red and white mushroom character within minutes!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Paper Plate
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Paint Brush
  • Clothespin
  • Medium Sized Craft Pom Pom
  • Red Craft Paint
  • White Craft Paint
  • Brown Cardstock Paper
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Green Cardstock Paper
  • School Glue
  • Craft Scissors

Directions:

  • First cut your LARGE paper plate in half. Straight up the center to make TWO equal pieces.
  • You can either make TWO mushrooms at once or set one half aside for another day.
  • Next grab your red craft paint and squirt some in the center of one of your paper plate halves.
  • Use your paint brush to move the paint around until the plate is completely covered.
  • Now grab your clothespin, pom pom and white craft paint.
  • On your SMALL paper plate squirt a small amount of paint.
  • Take the pom pom and “pinch” it in between the clothespin.
  • Use your newly made “paint brush” to add a few white polka dots on the painted paper plate half.
  • When done, set it aside to let it dry a bit.
  • Now grab your sheets of various cardstock paper {white, green and brown.}
  • Use scissors to cut out a medium sized oval nose from the brown.
  • For the stem of the mushroom, cut out a 3″x5″ inch rectangle from the white.
  • Do the same out of the green but cut along one edge for the “grass.”
  • To finish off the Mushroom Gnome craft, you will want to glue the cardstock paper pieces in their designated spots on the painted paper plate half. I suggest with starting with the white paper piece first, then the green grass and finally the nose.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit.
  • Then display proudly for all to see! #gluedtomycrafts
