Thanks for grabbing this project! The next Grab & Go will be available on December 12th!

 

Instructions:

There are two types of fences that you can make, choose whichever you like better:

Short Fence with No Gaps

Put aside 2 popsicle sticks and cut the 4 remaining sticks in half. If this is too difficult: ask an adult for help.

Lay down some scrap paper. Then, place the half-sticks in a row.

Using liquid glue, glue the in-between of the sticks together.

Using the 2 popsicle sticks put aside in Step 1, glue them across the line of 8-half sticks.

(Optional) Depending if you want to hang this craft, tie the ends of the string into knots. Glue the ends of the string onto the fence.

Let dry.

Once dried, flip over the fence and decorate the front.

 

Tall Fence with Gaps

Lay down some scrap paper. Then, place 4 sticks in a row, leaving a gap in-between each stick.

Using the last 2 popsicle sticks, glue them across the line of 4 sticks.

(Optional) Depending if you want to hang the fence, tie the ends of the string around the popsicle sticks on the far right and left. Add on more liquid glue to the string around the sticks, to secure it.

Let dry.

Once dried, decorate.
