This  sweet summer craft is perfect for older kids who are able to use a hot glue gun. A hot glue gun isn’t necessary for this craft, but it makes it easier.

  • Black and lime green tissue paper
  • Mod Podge and a brush
  • Bubble wrap
  • Googly eyes
  • Black twine or yarn
  • Black construction paper
  • Hot glue and a hot glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Silver or white permanent marker

After gathering your supplies, use scissors to cut the green and black tissue paper into small 1 inch squares.

Use a paintbrush and Mod Podge to decoupage the squares onto the thin end of the craft spoon. When finished, attach a couple googly eyes to the wet Mod Podge and place the craft spoon into a clothespin to dry.

While the firefly  is drying, use scissors to cut the shape of wings from the bubble wrap and black construction paper. Then use Mod Podge and a brush to decoupage the other end of the firefly. Allow it to dry completely propped up in a clothespin.

Fold the bubble wrap wings horizontally and secure the fold with a dot of hot glue. Attach the bubble wrap wings and the black wings to the back of the firefly  with hot glue. Use the hot glue gun to secure 2 black twine antennae to the firefly.

Use a silver or white permanent marker to make a smiley face on the firefly.

Isn’t it cute! If desired, glue a loop of black twine to the back of the firefly so you can use it as a Christmas ornament this winter!
