How To Make a Popsicle Stick Fox
Step 1: Preparing the Popsicle Sticks
Glue together three popsicle sticks in a triangle shape. If you don’t have orange popsicle sticks you can paint three regular sticks.
Step 2: Creating the Face
Cut a triangle from the orange cardstock to fit behind the Popsicle sticks, with the point of the triangle forming the nose of the fox. Glue this triangle to the back of the Popsicle sticks.
Step 3: Adding Ears
Cut out two triangle shapes for the ears from the orange cardstock. Then, cut smaller triangles from the while cardstock and glue them inside the white triangles to create a layered effect. Attach these ears to the top of the Popsicle stick panel. Draw black lines around the ears if desired.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
Add the black pom pom to the point of the triangle for the nose. Then, glue the googly eyes above the nose to complete your Fox’s face.
