Santa Popsicle Stick Magnet

Santa Popsicle Stick Magnet

I was going through some old boxes of crafts that my bunch used to make years ago and I came across a few cute ones.


What you need:



5 Popsicle sticks (paint them white and let dry)

White Paint

2 small leaf shape cut from white paper (this is Santa's mustache)

2 google eyes

Red triangle for the hat

small puff for the tassel on the hat

small piece of paper (mine is pink so you could see it ) (use it for the base to glue your sticks on)

black marker

piece of magnet (I always save all the old ones from pizza places and such)

What to do:

A) Glue the sticks onto the background piece



B)glue all in a row and let dry


C) glue on hat (red triangle)














D) glue on tassel
E) glue on googly eyes, the two sides to the mustache and then draw a small mouth.
F) When completely dry flip over and glue on magnet, dry and then hang up.

Now if you are doing this with your kids, be sure to write their names in a smartie marker (permanent) and the date.
Memories can last forever. Be sure to put in a baggie and put up with your Christmas stuff, even if you don't hang every year it is really a cool thing to get out and talk about making it together.

Get out there and make some memories...
