Did you ever make things out of Popsicle sticks as a kid? I have fond memories of making popsicle stick picture frames and jewlery boxes in summer camp.
Today's craft is a slightly more sophisticated version of this beloved childhood activity. (Maybe that's why I enjoyed making it so much?) This hexagon wall art is graphic, super easy to make, and (bonus!) covers a large space for relatively little cost. If you have a wall that you'd like to easily decorate, why not give it a try too?
Materials:
- Popsicle sticks
- Paint
- Paint brushes
- Hot glue gun
Directions:
1. Practice arranging your Popsicle sticks. When you're pleased with your arrangement, take a photo so you'll remember it.
2. Paint your sticks. (I initially painted them yellow, but thought they looked a little too flat. Hubby suggested that I add a gold stripe to them to give them more depth.)
3. Hot glue your sticks together. One easy way to ensure that your hexagons have similar angles is to draw out a hexagon shape and use that to guide your gluing.
And that's really all you have to do to create your own honeycomb wall art.
Happy crafting!
