Walrus Canvas Craft

Step  1.

Walruses love icy waters — so paint some freezing waves!

Step  2.

Draw your waves using a pencil, then paint over the outlines with different shades of blue.

Step  3.

While your canvas dries, grab 1 dark brown foam sheet and 1 light brown foam sheet. Cut the dark brown foam sheet into a large circle. Then, cut 2 small circles from the light brown foam sheet.

Step  4.

Give your walrus some tusks! Peel off the white paper to reveal the sticky side of your peel & stick craft sticks. Press 1 craft stick onto your light brown circle, and the other craft stick on your second circle! 

Step  5.

Make some whiskers! Grab your light and dark brown hemp cords and fold them into four loops.

Step  6.

Tie a knot with your remaining cord around the loops to secure.

Step  7.

Then, snip the loops!

Step  8.

Put the pieces together! Glue your tusks near the bottom of your dark brown circle. Then, glue down your walrus’ whiskers! Place a small dab of glue on top of the knots on your whiskers and stick a black pom ball on top. Next, glue down your large wiggly eyes above your walrus’ nose, and use a black marker to add cute details!

Step  9.

Glue your walrus to the center of your canvas — but before you do, make sure it’s completely dry!

Step  10.

Make some snowflakes! Grab 3 white fuzzy sticks and cut them in half.

Step  11.

Bend your fuzzy sticks together to create 6 snowflake points. Then, slide a bead down to the center of each point!

Step  12.

Grab another fuzzy stick and cut it into 6 shorter pieces. Wrap each piece around the ends of the existing fuzzy stick points creating an arrow shape.

Step  13.

Once you have added arrow shapes to each of your snowflake points, trim as needed.

Step  14.

Make another snowflake! Repeat steps 10-13 — but this time, cut your fuzzy sticks in smaller pieces. Now make your snowflakes sparkle! Add glue wherever you’d like to see your snowflakes glisten — then sprinkle your glitter on top!

Step  15.

Let your snowflakes dry, then glue them wherever you please onto your walrus canvas craft!
