Owl Craft

This little owl craft is easy and ever-so-cute!

Happy Friday! This has been the weirdest week in the history of weeks 🙂 I’m super busy getting ready for our 10th annual Fall Party (which is tomorrow) so today I’m doing a flashback of the kids craft we did at last years fall party!

***

They were easy to do for ages 3 and older…any younger and the mama’s did ’em!

Here’s how ya do it…

You need:

*pine cones-I used those cinnamon scented pine cones so the owls aren’t only cute they smell kinda like the holidays.

*Cotton Balls

*Feathers

*Orange craft paper or Orange felt for the nose

*clay pots

*Moss

*Google eyes

*Pipe Cleaners & *Craft Paper for your “Hoo Loves You ” sign

Gently pull apart the cotton balls and tuck the cotton into the pine cone…

Glue two whole cotton balls for the owls eyes…

Glue the crazy eyes onto the cotton balls and glue a couple of feathers to his little head…

Glue some bigger feathers like wings spread out…if you want your owl to be in flight…oh! And don’t forget to glue on his tiny orange nose!

Tuck some moss in the clay pot to make a comfy nest…

Or glue some smaller feathers to the side of the owl if you’d prefer your little owl sitting still !

Then if you want, make a little sign: Hoo Loves You?

(Got this cute idea from the great website: The Crafty Classroom)

It was fun and reminded me of all those years Mama  planned crafts for us every Thanksgiving…

Sheer bedlam…laughing-talking over one another…

Just being family.

Enjoy your day sweet friends xo
