Recently, we got together with another Artsy family so the kiddos could have a crafting playdate. One of the two projects we made was a cute and simple beaded butterfly, which I shared in yesterday’s post. The other project was this adorable giraffe, which I saw on Parents.com. It was pretty easy to make; the hardest part was waiting for parts of it to dry so we could move on to the next step. Here’s how we made them and you can too:
STEP 3: Use thumb in brown paint to create spots on giraffe’s body and the clothespins.
STEP 4: Attach clothespins to body as legs and neck.
STEP 5: Glue pom pom inside clothespin to form head.
STEP 6: Glue pipecleaner to the back of neck clothespin.
STEP 7: Add eyes. {It was actually the kids’ idea to add the eyes on}!
I’d say they were a hit! Happy crafting!
