How to Make a Bumble Bee Decoration

Gather your supplies together for this project, and make sure to cover the work surface with newspaper or a drop cloth. If your flower pot is not yellow, begin by taking it outside to spray paint yellow.

Allow the paint to dry completely before moving on to the next steps of the craft.

Once the paint has dried on your flower pot, you will begin attaching the white thread or twine to the outside of the pot. Using hot glue to attach it, wind the thread around the pot at a diagonal.

Once you reach the top of the pot, you will clip the end and secure it with glue.

Next, you will use the foam paper to create the bees for this garden decoration.

Draw two circles on the yellow paper. One will be big, and one will be smaller but connected in the middle. This will form the body of the bee.

Cut this shape out, then use it as a template to draw and cut 2-3 more in the same size and shape.

Next, to decorate the wings, you will use pieces of white cardboard to draw and cut out a simple wing design. Make one set for each bee.

Using a black permanent marker, you will draw stripes on the yellow foam board along with a mouth and eyes to make the bees cute.

Cut small black circles or ovals from the foam board to add to the bees to create "ears" or antennae. You will also use the foam board to cut a small door to glue onto the flower pot.

Now, hot glue one of the bees and the door to the outside of the flower pot.

Next, you will hot glue the floral wire to the backside of the flower pot. This will be opposite the door you just attached.

On the top of each long piece of wire, hot glue the additional two bees and bend the wire to arrange them.
