Project Steps:
-
Step 1:
Print out your template (if desired) and cut along the black outline.
-
Step 2:
Line up 7 Jumbo Craft Sticks so that they are tight together and vertical. Tape the backside all the way across so that they stay in place while you paint and decorate your puzzle.
-
Step 3:
Label the back of each stick numbers 1 through 7 so that you know the order of your puzzle.
-
Step 4:
If using a template, trace it on the front of craft sticks with a pencil. (If using the rocket template, use a circle stencil like a nickel or other coin to trace the windows of the rocket.) Add any details you would like to your rocket. Alternatively, create your own design.
