Hello there, fellow craft lovers! Today, I have something special to share with you. It’s a super cute printable owl craft that you can make in either pink or blue. This craft is perfect for children and adults alike, and it’s a great way to spend some quality time with your family.
Choose Your Color
First things first, you have to decide whether you want to make a pink owl or a blue owl. Don’t worry, both are equally adorable, so there’s no wrong choice here. Once you’ve made your decision, you’re ready to get started!
What You’ll Need
Before we dive into the instructions, let’s make sure you have everything you need. Here’s a list of the materials required for this craft:
- Printable owl template (which you can find here: http://kidsactivitiesblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Owl-Craft.png)
- Scissors
- Glue
- Markers or colored pencils
Instructions
Step 1: Print and Cut Out the Template
Start by printing out the owl template. You can use regular printer paper or cardstock, depending on how sturdy you want your owl to be. Once you’ve printed the template, use scissors to cut out the owl shape along the outer edge. Then, cut out the eyes and the heart in the center of the owl’s chest.
Step 2: Decorate the Owl
Now it’s time to get creative! Use your markers or colored pencils to add some personality to your owl. You can color the entire owl body, or just add some designs to the wings and feathers. You can also draw some cute little eyebrows above the eyes.
Step 3: Assemble the Owl
This is where the magic happens. Take the owl body and fold it in half along the dotted line. Then, add a little bit of glue to the back of the owl where the heart-shaped cut-out is. Carefully position the wings so that they stick to the glue, creating a 3D effect.
Finally, add a dab of glue to the back of the owl’s eyes and position them in the eye sockets. And voila! You’ve created an adorable little owl that’s ready to be displayed on your desk or bookshelf.
