Crafting is a great hands-on experience for the kids. While crafting supplies can get expensive, making these Christmas Popsicle stick patterns are fairly inexpensive. I’ve seen quite a few supplies that you can even pick up from Dollar Tree, even though items are now $1.25 each.
You will need the following supplies:
- Popsicle Sticks
- Glue
- Markers
- Paint
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Glitter
- 3 Red Circular Items to Put on the Wreath (buttons, red hots, construction paper)
- 1 Red Square for Reindeer’s Nose
Optional Items
- Hammer
- Small Nails
- Clear Fishing Line

Follow the pattern to create your very own popsicle stick Christmas tree. Simply use a pencil and ruler to mark where you need to cut the popsicle stick. Then color each one or decorate it the way you want it.
How to Build a Christmas Popsicle Stick Candy Cane
Follow the pattern for making this candy cane popsicle stick craft for Christmas. Don’t forget to use a pencil and ruler to cut the popsicle stick to the correct size. Then color or decorate. You can even add a small hole in the top of the candy cane and add clear fishing line if you want to turn it into an ornament for your tree.
How to Build a Christmas Popsicle Stick Reindeer
The reindeer is fairly simple to make and is perfect for beginners. Simply follow the pattern using your ruler and pencils to mark where you need to cut the popsicle stick. Then color or decorate your popsicle stick. Finally, add your eyes and nose.

You can’t have Christmas without the traditional Christmas wreath. To make this festive wreath simply follow our pattern above. Then use your pencil and ruler to make a straight line where the cuts will be. Next, carefully use the scissors to cut the popsicle stick. Again, you can use a hammer and nail to add a small hole to the top of the wreath. Then use clear fishing line to make your ornament.
How to Build Christmas Popsicle Stick Snowflake
This is another simple pattern for beginners and doesn’t require cutting popsicle sticks. Simply glue the popsicle sticks together according to the pattern. Then decorate your snowflake. Again, you can even turn this into an ornament too.
