Directions

Download the sheep template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.

If you don’t want to use glue dots, replace them with hot glue and do the same steps as above.

Paint the popsicle sticks in 1-2 thin coats of white paint. Let the popsicle sticks dry completely before moving on.

Glue the 2 eyes just above the mouth on the sheep’s head.

Place the sheep’s head fluff just above the eyes and glue it in place. Use a gray marker to draw fluff marks on the sheep’s head.

Arrange the popsicle sticks horizontally. Take the completed head and glue it to the top, right-hand corner of the popsicle sticks.

Position the sheep’s legs along the bottom of the popsicle sticks. Arrange them the way you would like them and then glue them to the back of the sheep’s body.

Glue the sheep’s tail to the top, left-hand of the body. Use the same gray marker to draw the fluff all over the sheep’s body.
