A Paper Plate Lion and Lamb

By

I had a picture of a lion and lamb craft we made on Wednesday post Odds Are JDaniel Will Have Another Lion Birthday. The post was on the weather and it didn’t seem appropriate to share how we made the crafts. Let me share with you know how we made the paper plate lion and lamb.

Today I wanted to share how we made each of these really easy paper plate crafts.

Let’s start with the lion.

Supplies:
White paper plate
Yellow yarn
Brown Buttons (2)
Black Construction Paper
Glue
Needle with a large eye whole
Hole punch
Directions:
1. Punch a ring of holes on the outside edge of the plate.
2. Punch a ring of holes on the inside edge of the plate or snip small holes with scissors.
3. Weave the yarn up and down diagonally from an outside ring hole to an inside one clockwise.
4. Do the same type of weaving counterclockwise around the plate.
5. Sew connecting stitches in the inside ring.
6. Stitch the two-button into place.
7. Cut a triangular nose and curved mouthpieces out of black construction paper.
8. Glue the nose and mouth on.
Now let’s move on to the lamb.

Supplies:

Black paper plate

Blue construction paper

White hole reinforcement rings

Directions:

1. Trace a hand onto a black paper plate.

2. Place white hole reinforcement rings all over the palm of the hand and a few on the fingers.

3. Place a small blue construction paper circle on the thumb for the lamb’s eye.

I think both of these crafts are great ways to welcome the month of March. You will find more art projects on my Crafts for Kids board on Pinterest.

Update: Both of lion and the lamb paper plate crafts have been updated. You will check out the updated crafts on the Lion and Lamb  Paper Plate Craft post. The lion craft is similar. The lion craft is totally new. I think you will like both of them.

  10. Love love love the lamb 🙂 My daughter is really into Shaun the Sheep, so this would be something she would really get in to.

  15. Now I finally know what to do with all of those little sticky rings. I have a box of them collecting dust in my writing desk. Thanks for the inspiration, and for sharing this idea at the Kid’s Co-op!
