Cupid Arrows

How we did it:
Materials List
- feathers (1 bag)
- skewers (1 bag)
- felt sticker hearts (1 bag)
- bakers twine (1 )
- markers (1-5)
- scissors (1)
- pipe cleaners (1)
-
Gather Supplies, glue gun (not in pictures) was plugged in away from little ones reach.
-
Pick out your wood skewer
-
You can either color your sticks to decorate...
-
or you can decorate the stick with pipcleaners, just hot or tacky glue the top and bottom so they stay in place.
-
Now pick out which hearts you want & have mom help align the hearts at the bottom of your arrow.
-
You can lay the bottom one in place and have them just do the top on to match on the other side, whichever is easiest.
-
Now it is time for the feathers, this one is a little more tricky so mom might need to take over with the hotglue gun.
-
Don't worry, while you are putting together the feather ends, the kids won't be missing out on anything.. my daughter had a good 15 minutes of fun just blowing all of the feathers everywhere... i didn't mind one bit because I was able to get the hot glue gun part over before she knew it was time to move on to the next step. This section, was the only reason I rated this project messy ;)
-
Now you can look at your finished product, or keep going and make a bunch of cute little Cupid's Arrows!
-
You can also take this project one step further & construct a bow for your arrow with the bakers twine & a stick. All credit to this part goes to my husband, what would we do without a guy's mind!?
-
You can either play with these or stick them on the kids' shelf in an old mason jar to decorate for Valentine's!
