Fairy Wand

Fairy Wand

You will need:

  • Coloured plastic straw
  • Small piece of craft foam or coloured card
  • Some shiny bits or stickers to decorate
  • 2 small pieces of curling ribbon (the plastic kind you find in card shops)

Instructions

  1. Cut a star shape from your piece of foam or card.
  2. Decorate using your chosen shiny bits or stickers.
  3. Glue your curling ribbon to the bottom of the star at the back so as to hide the glue.
  4. Once dry,  glue the star to the end of your straw.  Once dry your little one is ready to create some magic.

This would make a great craft for keeping those little ones busy at a themed craft party.

I find that a “Cool Melt” glue gun is ideal for this project.   As this type of glue gun does not get as hot as a normal one, with a little supervision it is ideal for kids to use.  You can buy a “Cool Melt” glue gun complete with glue sticks  from www.one-stop-party.co.uk
