Craft Stick Bats Craft

This Craft Stick Bats Craft is the perfect Halloween craft for two very good reasons. One, it’s made in literally a matter of minutes. So easy, and virtually foolproof. And two, they’re so simple but their beady little eyes and cute little fangs just make me absolutely happy.

I do love Halloween. And, I do love bat crafts at Halloween. This Spoon Bats Craft were some of our first crafts posted here at Our Kid Things, and still a favorite. We also love these Bottle Cap Bats, and this Paper Plate Bat Craft is adorable. OK, maybe I have an unhealthy affection for bats.

Position the middle craft stick lower than the other 2. Cut a rectangle of the black cardstock just within the width of all 3 craft sticks. Glue to the craft sticks to hold in place.

Glue one end of one of the remaining craft sticks horizontally against half the black cardstock, so it’s sticking out. Do the same on the other side with the remaining craft stick. Let the glue dry.
