How To Make This Popsicle Craft Project
Arrange 4 or 5 craft sticks in the order you want them to be for your snake body.
Take Velcro dots and stick them to the sticks on each end, either the top or the bottom depending on how you ordered your sticks.
For the snake’s head, cut one stick into thirds. Lay the end pieces side by side, and glue the middle third to the back of them so they are secured together.
Using the red felt, cut a small rectangle about 2”x ½”. Then cut a small “V” shape out of one end of the rectangle. Glue this to the back of the snake’s head. Now decorate all your sticks with the markers, glitter glue, and buttons. Don’t you just love the way this snake craft is turning out?!
Let dry for about an hour. Make all different colors and styles of sticks and interchange them. Have fun!
