DIY Popsicle Stick Loom


A Mini Loom is a great way to create small-scale weaving projects in a snap! Using popsicle sticks gives you a straight-edge and an even frame. Use this frame to create a wall decoration, a coaster, a small rug for your doll house, or any other small weaving project you can think of!

Things to do:
1. Glue the ends of your popsicle sticks together into an even square shape.
