Easy Sheep Craft
Supplies
- Colored cardstock
- Scissors
- Glue
- Tape or stapler
- Markers or crayons (if using the color in version)
- Sheep template (enter your email in the form at the end of this post to have the link sent to you)
Directions
Download the sheep template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
Begin to create the sheep’s face by gluing the eyes just above the nose.
Place the inner ears on both ears and glue them down.
Position the sheep fluff at the top of the head, so it’s slightly overlapping the top of the sheep’s eyes.
Glue the cheeks on both sides of the face, right below the eyes.
Take the completed sheep’s head and glue it to one of the headband extenders. Flip the headband over and tape the seam where the extender and head meet.
Attach an extender on both sides of the headband with tape or a stapler.
That’s it! That’s all it takes to make your own cute sheep headband!
