Polar bears are known for their distinct white fur and large size.

These adorable creatures are often associated with cold weather and snow, making them the perfect addition to a Christmas Tree.

When you finish this polar bear craft, you’ll have an adorable bear to place anywhere in the house!

How to make handmade polar bears

What you need:

  • five wooden craft sticks
  • White paper
  • silk ribbon
  • heart shaped rhinestones
  • paint brush
  • black and pink marker pen
  • glue
  • drag
  • acrylic paint (white and gray)

Step-by-step instructions

Body

Take your craft sticks and start painting them with white paint.

Now, wait for your sticks to dry before using scissors to cut the bottom of them.

Use both hands to break a craft stick, gently removing the smaller piece.

Grab your scissors and cut your craft stick again. Be sure to cut in the middle.

Place your four craft sticks together, with the two middle sticks sitting lower than the two outer sticks.

Use glue sticks to attach the cut pieces horizontally on the four craft sticks you glued together.

Hind feet

Grab your paintbrush and start adding more light gray paint to the bottom of your craft stick.

stomach

Create a circle in the middle of the stick using light gray paint and a paintbrush to make the polar bear’s belly.

Add gray paint to the two craft sticks on the outside.

muzzle

Take your pencil, draw an ellipse on paper and cut it out.

Draw the nose and lips on a white ellipse.

Use glue to attach the nose to the center of the craft stick.

Face

Take a pink marker and draw hearts on either side of the bear’s nose.

We will get lovely pink cheeks like this.

Use a black marker to draw claws on the paws (two craft sticks inside).

Scarf

Now we will make a scarf for the bear.

Take your ribbon and tie it around the craft stick, cutting off the excess.

Cut both ends of the ribbon so they are even.

Take your red heart-shaped diamond and glue it to the polar bear’s belly.

Forefoot

Use your pencil to draw the arm.

Add claws to your bear’s hands using a permanent marker.

Glue the polar bear’s arms in place.

Now you have the cutest looking polar bear you’ve ever seen!

Complete these fun, cute crafts with your kids at home.

This is the perfect ending to a lesson about polar bears and all the amazing things they do in the wild!

Does it look nice? We love it!

You can create a whole family of bears if you want.
