Top Tip
Apply two coats of paint to the candy canes and window frame to make sure that the white stands out.
How to Make
- Take a sheet of A4 red card and fold it in half. With the fold line along the left hand side draw the shape of a house onto your card, approximately 10.5cm wide and 16.5cm tall. Cut out the shape using scissors.
- Lay out fourteen craft sticks next to each other with the long ends of the sticks touching.
- Make sure the ends of the sticks are all in line with each other. Cut away the edges from the top three craft sticks at an angle, on either side.
- You might want to ask an adult to help with this step as this could be hard for a child to do with scissors.
- Apply some glue all over the front of the red card you have just cut out and then stick down the craft sticks.
- Download and print off the template provided then cut out the individual shapes.
- Draw around the two roof templates onto white self-adhesive foam and cut these out. Peel away the self-adhesive backing and stick them to the top of the house to create the icing roof.
- Draw around the large circle and candy cane templates onto red self-adhesive foam and cut these out. Then draw around the door and smaller circles onto green self- adhesive foam and cut these out. Peel away the self-adhesive backing from all and stick the pieces to the front of the card.
- Stick some red and green buttons along the top of the icing roof using a small amount of glue and one white button to the front of the door for the handle.
- Using some white paint, paint on the candy cane stripes and window frame. Leave to dry.
