Mother's Day Craft

Lolly Stick Window Box

This pretty lolly stick window box is a quick kids craft for younger children which makes a delightful gift for them to make for Mother's Day, Grandparent's Day or other occasions. As a glue gun is used, an adult's help will be required.

You will need:

8 craft sticks in bright colours
2 green craft sticks
Glue gun (ask an adult to help)
Craft foam
Pompoms

Instructions:

Glue three of the sticks side by side to make a ‘rectangle’. Repeat with another three sticks.
Glue a stick along one edge of a ‘rectangle’ at right angles to the others. Repeat with the other ‘rectangle’.
Glue the two pieces together with the green sticks standing upright in between. You might need a second person's help with this step because it can be a bit fiddly!
Cut flower shapes from craft foam and glue on to the green sticks. Glue on a pompom to the middle of each flower.
