These little bridges make great table decorations. Thanks go Sharon Mehl of KidsDomain for inspiring this project.
You need:
- 65 Craft Sticks
- 8 Mini Craft Sticks
- 2 Jumbo Craft Sticks
- Green Craft Foam
- Girl Scout Charms pattern
- 4 Foam Hearts
- Small Silk Flowers
- Low Temp Glue Gun
Instructions:
Glue 11 craft sticks one on top of the other. Glue 6 craft sticks one on top of the other. Glue another 6 craft sticks one on top of the other. Glue the two stacks of six side-by-side. Glue the stack of eleven along side the double stack of six. This will form the step. Repeat to form the other step.
Lay 15 craft sticks side-by-side. Glue another 4 sticks on top of the 15 sticks laying them in the opposite direction to secure them in place. Turn upside down so you don’t see the supporting sticks.
Glue a step to each side of the bridge, lining them up with the last stick on each end.
Lay a jumbo craft stick on your work surface. Use a glue gun to attach the four mini craft sticks on their ends to the flat jumbo craft stick, evenly spacing the mini sticks. This will make a railing. Repeat to make the other railing.
Turn the railings over and add a dab of glue on each mini stick to secure the bottoms of the railings to the bridge.
Decorate with silk flowers and foamies as shown in photo above.
