10 Craft Ideas to do With Church Coloring Pages
Once those vibrant finished coloring pages start piling up, these easy and affordable crafts are perfect for putting them to delightful use!
1. Stained Glass Window Suncatchers
Carefully cut out the window portions from your colored church page. Glue different colored tissue paper squares onto the back of these cut-outs, then frame the whole piece with construction paper or cardstock. Hang your beautiful “stained glass” in a sunny window to let the light shine through.
2. Prayer Request Jar Decorations
Decorate a simple glass jar (like a mason jar or a repurposed food jar) to hold prayer requests. Cut out a vibrant church image or a cross from your finished coloring page and glue it to the front of the jar. Children can write their prayers on slips of paper and place them inside, creating a visual reminder of faith.
3. Miniature Church Diorama
Create a charming 3D scene inside a shoebox. Cut out your colored church and glue it to the back wall of the shoebox. Then, use pipe cleaner trees, cotton ball clouds, and small pebbles or craft sticks for a path to build a lovely miniature church setting that tells a story.
4. Church Welcome Door Hanger
Cut out a large church shape from your colored page and glue it onto a piece of sturdy cardstock or poster board for durability. Punch a hole at the top and thread a ribbon or yarn through it. Write “Welcome” or “God Bless Our Home” on it and hang it on a bedroom door.
5. Faithful Flock Mobile
Cut out multiple church images, crosses, or doves (if on the pages) from your finished coloring pages. Attach them with string or yarn to a simple hanger made from two crossed popsicle sticks or a paper plate rim. Hang your mobile as a gentle reminder of community and faith.
6. “My Church” Photo Frame
Create a special frame for a photo of your family or the church building itself. Cut strips or small details from your colored church pages to glue around the edges of a plain cardboard or craft foam frame. It makes a beautiful, personalized display of your connection to your church.
7. Bookmark for Bible Study
Cut a strip from your colored church page, focusing on a steeple, cross, or a particularly vibrant section. Glue it onto a piece of cardstock for rigidity, then laminate it with clear contact paper for durability. Punch a hole at the top and add a decorative yarn tassel, perfect for marking your place in the Bible or a favorite book.
8. Community Bulletin Board Accents
Encourage children to cut out specific elements from their colored church pages – steeples, crosses, bell towers, or even entire small churches. These can then be gathered and glued onto a larger poster board or bulletin board to create a collaborative “Our Church Community” display, showcasing everyone's art.
9. Church Finger Puppets
Cut out individual church buildings or specific characters (if featured on the page) from your colored pages. Glue a small paper loop or a craft stick to the back of each cut-out to turn them into finger or stick puppets. Use them to retell Bible stories or create your own faith-based narratives.
10. Gratitude Prayer Flags
Cut your colored church pages into flag shapes. On each flag, write something you are grateful for, a prayer, or a blessing. Punch holes at the top corners of each flag and string them together with yarn or ribbon to create a beautiful banner of gratitude to display in a classroom or home.
