Five Fun and Easy Fairy Crafts
My daughter has spent the last two years living in a variety of fairy dresses. Wearing non-fairy clothes only happens if I get to the clothes drawers first. And every fairy must be well accessorised. Fairy craft is a necessity in our house!
Fairy Wand
the essential in any fairy crafts list!
Materials: cardboard, hotdog stick, tinfoil, glue, ribbonsUsing the template provided, draw a star shape onto two pieces of card. Tape a hot dog stick to one and then glue the other star on top, sandwiching the stick between the shapes.
Glue a piece of tinfoil onto each side, and fold at the edges to neaten.
Dab glue onto the tinfoil and sprinkle glitter over to decorate.
You can wind a pretty ribbon around the stick to decorate if you like.
