Popsicle Stick Crate
Popsicle Stick Crafts: A Crate made from Jumbo Sticks
Back in my classroom days, I used to hold after school classes that were craft-themed too. A favorite source for making things, were popsicle sticks.
Regular sized, jumbo, mini … I loved them all for their eco-friendly wooden look and ease in connecting with just some good old craft glue.
It led to some happy summer experimenting to see if I couldn’t come up with more ideas that would help people of all ages enjoy the fun of crafting with these inexpensive little wooden things.
This box was one result, and now it has its own video so you can see in about 2 minutes exactly how to make one. I promise you that the hardest part is waiting for the glue to dry before you try putting things inside. There are just too many possibilities!
