Servings: 1 Pair of Santa Binoculars
Ingredients
- 2 toilet paper rolls
- Felt red, black and white
- Gold pipe cleaners
- String
- Hot Glue Sticks
- Glue gun
- Craft Hook Tool optional
- Scissors
Instructions
- Cut the red felt into 4 1/2” wide pieces.
- Next you will need the two toilet paper rolls, place a line of hot glue on each roll and place them on the outside edges of the red felt. Roll the toilet paper rolls towards the center of the felt adding a little glue at a time until they meet in the middle.
- Cut the black and white felt into 1 ½” strips.
- Glue the white felt towards the bottom of the binoculars and the black in the center, wrapping around until they each meet in the middle.
- Next, cut the gold pipe cleaner into four 1” pieces to make the belt buckle. Secure on the black felt with hot glue.
- Pierce the sides of the binoculars with the craft hook near the top to make a hole for the string.
- Measure your child’s neck and cut the string at the needed length.
- Finally, poke the string threw the holes on the side of the binoculars and tie the string in a knot to make a strap.
Notes
- Make these adorable Christmas binoculars extra fun by using glitter felt instead of plain felt. There’s always more room for glitter!
- Lay craft paper down on your work station to protect from hot glue drips and make for an easy clean-up.
- If you are making this with younger children, cut the strips of felt out for them beforehand to make things go more quickly and smoothly.
- If you don’t have felt on hand, construction paper will work great. If you don't have a craft hook you can use a needle, the tip of scissors, and adults can carefully use a knife.
