Servings 4 honey bees
Cost $6
Ingredients
- 4-6 wine corks
- construction paper black
- acrylic paint yellow
- Sharpie black
- Yarn white
Instructions
- Honeybee's body: Paint wine corks with yellow acrylic paint. Let corks dry completely (for 10-30 minutes). Use a black Sharpie to draw 3-6 black lines around the body of the cork.
- Honeybee's face and antennae: Use the same black Sharpie to draw eyes, a nose and mouth on the flat base of the cork. Cut out two thin strips of black paper for the honeybees antennae. Glue strips above the honeybee's face. Note: I folded down the bottoms of the antenna and glued the folded part of the strips to the cork to best secure the strips to the cork.
- Honeybee's wings: Cut out two small pieces of white yarn (about 5-6 inches long). Fold each piece of yarn in half and glue the ends together and to each side of the honeybee's body.
- Optional: If you'd like to turn you cork honeybee craft into a honeybee mobile, simply glue your honeybees to long pieces of yarn and fasten them to a popsicle stick.
