What You’ll Need

- Small beads in assorted colors
- Needle and thread
- Scissors
- Fabric glue (optional)
Let’s Get Crafting!
- Cut Out Your Popsicle Shapes
Start by cutting two popsicle shapes from your pastel pink felt. Make them about 6 inches tall and 3 inches wide at the widest part. For the stick, cut two rectangles from the light brown felt, about 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. - Create the Stick
Place your two brown rectangles together and sew around three sides, leaving one short end open. Stuff it lightly with polyester filling. Sew the open end closed. Voila! You’ve got your popsicle stick! - Embroider That Cute Face
On one of your pink popsicle shapes, it’s time to bring your kawaii creation to life! Using black embroidery floss, stitch two small curved lines for the eyes. Below them, create a sweet little smile. Add small pink circles on the cheeks for that extra dose of cuteness! - Add Some Sparkle
Around the face, sew on colorful beads to create the effect of sprinkles. This is where your popsicle really starts to shine! - Put It All Together
Position the stick at the bottom, between the two pink felt pieces. Pin everything in place, then sew around the edges, leaving a small opening at the top for stuffing. - Stuff and Seal
Stuff it with polyester filling until it’s nice and plump. Hand-stitch the opening closed. - Final Touches
For extra pizzazz, glue or sew a few more beads around the edges of your popsicle.
Congratulations! You’ve just created the sweetest little felt popsicle plush. Its pastel pink color and happy smile are sure to brighten up any room. This cuddly creation isn’t just a craft—it’s a mood lifter, a desk buddy, and a conversation starter all rolled into one!
Pro Tip: Make a bunch in different colors and flavors for a whole popsicle party!
Remember, crafting is all about having fun and expressing your creativity. So don’t worry if your popsicle isn’t perfect—each one is unique, just like the crafter who made it! Happy crafting! 🎨🧵✂️
