What I love about pencil crafts is the versatility you have with them. These super cute Toy Story 4 Forky Craft pencils can serve multiple purposes. You could make them for a classroom party, hook them onto a gift bag, and even keep them in your kid's pencil box at home (so they want to do their HW).

- 3 & ¼ White Pipe Cleaners

- 1 Light Blue Pipe Cleaner
- Pencil
🖌️ How To Make Forky
This craft takes about 5-8 minutes to make and about another 15-20 for the glue to dry. It would be great to do with little ones to help build their fine motor skills and interest in creativity.
- Step 1: Take one white pipe cleaner and fold the fork tongs. Allow it so you have about a one-inch piece that hangs down.
- Step 2: Then, wrap the other end around to it and start working it across the middle.
- Step 3: Fold one end of another white piece over one side and keep working it back and forth until the whole middle is filled in.
- Step 4: Fold the last whole white piece through the bottom of the white piece you just made.
- Step 5: Then take that whitetail and wrap it around the pencil.
- Step 6: Take the whole red piece and wrap it around the white part that is on the pencil. Then fold the ends of the red to make a few fingers.
- Step 7: Snip off a small piece of red from the last red piece. Make it so it is slightly curved.
- Step 8: Add a dab of glue just below the center of the spork tines. Then glue the red curved piece just below that. Then, glue the eyes below the eyebrows.
- Step 9: Make a tiny half circle out of the blue pipe cleaner and use the scissors to cut it off.
- Step 10: Glue that blue piece just below the eyes. Then allow all glue to dry.
- Step 11: After the glue is dry, flip it over and take a small white piece of pipe cleaner to make a piece that the pencil slides through. This will help to keep the spork topper from flopping around. Enjoy your super cute Forky pencil topper!

💡 Pro Tip: For classroom use, attach a small name label to the back of the topper so kids can easily identify their own without mixing them up or losing them.
🧑🎨 Expert Tips
- Lightweight Build: Use only lightweight decorative pieces to avoid top-heaviness that could cause the topper to tilt or fall during writing.
- Face Symmetry: While Forky’s look is uneven by design, align core features (like mouth center and eye spacing) to maintain visual balance on the pencil.
- Flexible Wrap: Twist supporting materials firmly around the pencil shaft without gluing to allow easy repositioning or removal without damage.
- Top Limit: Keep the topper’s height under three inches to ensure it doesn't interfere with storing the pencil or handling during frequent use.
- Secure Core: Reinforce the topper’s base by looping a second stabilizing piece below the head to lock it in place for active writing.
- Drying Station: Set the completed topper upright in a small cup while drying so all parts stay aligned and dry evenly without shifting. Forky stays upright and doesn’t wobble while writing.
