Seasonal Kids' Crafting Ideas
As the seasons change and the holidays approach, we’re all about finding fun, creative ways to involve everyone in the festive crafting season! Crafting isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way to celebrate each season with a bit of magic and a splash of color. We’ve gathered a few of our favorite kid-friendly craft ideas that make use of our most charming embellishments. From creating fall foliage to designing festive Christmas scenes, these projects bring the joy of each season to life. Let’s dive in and get crafting!
1. Watercolor Tree Art:
Start by painting a tree trunk and branches with brown watercolor paint, giving it a natural, textured look. Then, using the delightful buttons from the Micro Round Fall pack, glue on your “leaves” in rich fall colors for a vibrant, seasonal masterpiece! Each button adds a unique splash of autumn charm to your watercolor canvas.
2. Turkey Scenery:
Create a whimsical Thanksgiving scene by designing a festive landscape around the adorable turkey buttons from the Turkey Trot collection. Use construction paper, markers, and fabric for a vibrant background, then add your turkey as the centerpiece! Kids will love crafting this charming turkey display to celebrate fall's favorite feathered friend.
3. Nativity 3D Scene:
Bring the nativity story to life with a beautifully crafted 3D scene! Start with a wooden house structure and lay a cozy bed of craft hay or faux grass. Then, place characters from the Nativity, Wee Three Kings, and The Good Shepherd sets for a charming, hands-on holiday display. This sweet setup is sure to delight kids and bring a little extra warmth to the season.
4. Wooden Wonderland Ornament:
Transform a wooden ornament into a magical winter woodland scene! Begin by painting your ornament with snowy whites and icy blues, then attach adorable woodland critters from the Winter Wonderland Super Value Pack, 30pcs+ to create a charming nature-inspired decoration. Perfect for hanging on the tree, this craft will have everyone feeling the magic of the season!
5. Christmas Cards:
Let’s spread some holiday cheer with handmade Christmas cards! On festive cardstock, add ribbon, colorful markers, and a touch of whimsy with the beloved characters from Disney Holiday Heads Buttons. Each card becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake, filled with festive Disney magic that kids will love sharing with friends and family.
6. Gingerbread House:
Turn a DIY ceramic gingerbread house into a candy-coated wonderland! Start by painting the house in cozy cookie colors, then add a frosty effect with white glitter paint or spackle for “icing.” Finally, bring on the holiday magic with pops of color from Christmas Canes, 15pcs Craft Embellishments, the sweet treats from Sugar and Spice Super Value Pack, 32 Pieces, and the adorable Gumdrops pack. This deliciously decorated house will be the highlight of any holiday display!
We hope these ideas spark your creativity and give some festive flair to your next craft day. With just a few embellishments and a sprinkle of creativity, crafting seasonal magic has never been easier.
