Penguin Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin by cutting the cups from a paper egg carton.
You’ll want to round out the edges as much as possible, and trim so that it sits flat.
Then, paint the egg carton cups with black acrylic paint. Let dry.
Once the egg carton cups are completely dried, use a white paint pen to color in a white patch on the front of the cup.
Use the tip of a pen, scissor point, or something of the like to carefully make a small hole on top of the cup.
Now, cut an orange pipe cleaner into fourths.
Bend a small M shape into the middle of the pipe cleaner. Twist the edges around to secure.
Insert the pipe cleaner into the hole on top of the egg carton cup.
Next, cut a small triangle from orange cardstock. Glue in place for the beak.
Add two small self-adhesive googly eyes.
Lastly, we used a 1” circle paper punch to punch two holes for our feet. You could do this by just cutting two small circles freehand, though.
Trim the circle so it looks more like three penguin toes.
Then, finally, glue the feet to the bottom of the penguin to complete this super cute little winter penguin craft.
