How to Make a Popsicle Stick Pizza Slice

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Gather your supplies. Line up your jumbo craft sticks, paints, felt pieces, glue gun, and the rest of your materials so you’re ready to go.

Step 2: Build the Triangle Base
Make the pizza base by arranging three jumbo craft sticks into a triangle and gluing the corners together.

Step 3: Fill In the Slice
Lay additional jumbo craft sticks across the triangle to cover the slice shape. Mark where they need to be trimmed with a pencil.

Step 4: Trim the Sticks
Trim the sticks with scissors so they fit neatly inside the triangle.

Step 5: Glue the Sticks in Place
Glue the trimmed sticks to the back of your triangle to make a solid pizza surface.

Step 6: Paint the Sauce and Cheese
Paint the top one inch red for the sauce. Paint the rest golden yellow for the cheese. Let it dry, then add a second coat if needed.

Step 7: Trace the Toppings
Trace the crust pattern onto tan felt and the pepperoni pattern onto burgundy felt.

Step 8: Cut Out the Felt Pieces
Cut out the felt pieces neatly, staying just inside the traced lines.

Step 9: Add the Crust and Face
Glue the felt crust along the top edge of your pizza slice.
Attach two wiggle eyes to the front of the pizza and glue two small pink felt circles under the eyes for cheeks.

Step 10: Glue On the Pepperoni
Glue the felt pepperoni randomly on the pizza, cutting a few in half to place along the edges.

Step 11: Draw a Smile
Use the black marker to draw a big smile from cheek to cheek.
All done!
Your smiling pizza slice is ready to serve!
