Clothes pegs are so great when it comes to crafting. You can make pretty much anything with them. So many ideas! My son is mad about planes and has been following in his mamas footsteps in the crafting world. He asked me to post his clothes peg airplanes to my blog so that other kids can make them. 😍
For these airplanes you don’t need many craft items. You do need hot glue for this one however, so adult supervision is highly recommended for this craft. We made 2 airplanes so have put double of everything in the picture. This is what we used;
- Hot Glue
- Clothes pegs
- Craft Sticks
- Markers
- Small wooden circle (optional) This just gave us a finishing touch but you don’t need it!
Decorating Your Planes
You can then go to town decorating your plane using markers. You don’t have to use permanent markers if you have little ones (they are very difficult to remove from furnishings and skin!) child friendly markers will work just as well.
We also added a small wooden circle to the front of the plane to create a propeller. My son’s idea 🙂 This is optional but it does give the plane a cool finishing touch.
Cute little wooden clothes peg airplanes that are durable for play time!
*You can also cover your plane in coloured masking tape which my son has done before or even add stickers for fun effect. These planes are so simple to make and will create hours of fun for play time too.
