Scrap Paper Owl Craft

This Scrap Paper Owl Craft is not only a simple craft for fall but could also make for a really cute back to school craft, too! And, it’s a great way to use up any scrap pieces of paper you may have.

I have a thing for owls. They make some of my favorite craft projects. A few of our past owl crafts include an Aluminum Foil Owls Craft, Paper Plate Owl in a Fall Tree, Fall Leaf Owl Craft, and Craft Stick Owls. We do love owls.

Our Scrap Paper Owl Craft is super simple and we have an Owl Template Free Printable to make it even easier. As for supplies, you’ll need paper, scissors, and glue. See? Easy! For the paper, you will need larger sheets of cardstock for the main owl body, but use up any colorful or interesting scrap pieces of paper you have on hand for the area inside the body. This can be scrapbook paper, even magazine or newspaper pages would be fun. Whatever you have available! To finish, add a craft stick.

Use the owl template to cut out the body shape of the owl. Trace onto cardstock color of choice and cut out.

Then, cut out inner body part of the owl also using the template. Trace onto scrap paper and glue onto body.

Cut out the eyes, wings and the beak for the owl using a different hue cardstock or scrap paper.

Decide where you want the eyes and beak to be. Glue the beak first, then glue both of the eyes.

Glue both of the wings on the back. Your owl is now finished! You can leave as is or use a hot glue gun or tape to attach a craft stick on the back. Owl you ready for back to school?! Be sure to check out more of our fall crafts at Our Kid Things!
