Calories:
Materials
- Ryobi 18V One+ Cordless Glue Gun
- Popsicle sticks
- Posca paint pens
- Buttons
- Googly eyes
- Glue sticks
- Pencil
Instructions
- I drew the outline of my toy soldiers onto the four popsicle or lollipop sticks using a pencil. This was a guide so I knew what colour to paint each area of the popsicle stick.
- Next, I used posca paint pens to paint the different areas of the toy soldier. You can use paint pens or everyday acrylics. I find paint pens easier and I had some to hand.
- Once the wooden popsicle sticks were dry, I glued the buttons onto the Soldier's jackets.
- I then drew an outline using the black and silver Posca pens, adding details to the Soldiers body. Then I glued googly eyes to the face using the Ryobi Glue gun.
- The final step was to glue a ribbon to the back of the popsicle sticks to create a hanging loop for my decorations.
- Once the toy soldier Christmas decorations were completed I was able to hang them on our Christmas Tree. I think they look great! Do you!
