3 Creative DIY Popsicle Stick Crafts In Under 3 Minutes

Modified: Apr 25, 2025 by Vanessa Beaty · This post may contain affiliate links · 2 Comments

Sometimes, the simplest craft supplies are also the most versatile. Until recently, I overlooked just how much you can do with basic popsicle sticks, craft sticks, or tongue depressors.

3 Creative DIY Popsicle Stick Crafts In Under 3 Minutes

But I’ve already got a couple of cool projects on the site that use popsicle sticks. If you missed it a few months ago, be sure to check out how you can create an adorable mini-pallet for succulent plants here. Also, take a look at this recent project for creating DIY napkin holders.

Today I actually have three new popsicle stick crafts for you. They are all so fast and easy that I’ve been able to showcase them all in a single video which is under three minutes long. Check it out!

  • Popsicle sticks
  • Paint if you want to make them a different color

Picture Frame

1. Make a square by gluing 4 popsicle sticks together.

2. Get 2 more popsicle sticks and glue those on top. They should be parallel to each other and to the inside of those forming the existing frame (see pictures or video).

3. Get 2 more sticks and do the same thing again, but these ones should go the other direction (again, this is easier to see in the video).

Doll Bench

1. Set 2 popsicle sticks down parallel to one another, but with a slight gap between them.

2. Attach a popsicle stick at either end using hot glue (please see the video or photo). This is the back of the bench along with its back legs.

3. Glue 3 other popsicle sticks together to make a flat unit.
