10 Craft Ideas to do With Apricot Coloring Pages
Once your vibrant apricot coloring pages are complete, don't let them gather dust! Transform your colorful creations into these easy and affordable crafts.
1. Apricot Orchard Mobile
Cut out several finished apricot coloring pages. Punch a small hole at the top of each apricot and string them at varying lengths from a clothes hanger or crossed popsicle sticks to create a sunny orchard mobile for your room.
2. Fuzzy Apricot Magnets
Carefully cut out your colored apricots. Glue a small layer of cotton balls onto the surface of the paper apricot to mimic its fuzzy skin, then attach a small magnet to the back with strong glue for a sweet fridge decoration.
3. Homemade Apricot Jam Jar Labels
If you're making homemade apricot jam, these labels are perfect! Cut out your colored apricots and glue them onto small construction paper labels, then write the jam's flavor and date for a personalized touch on your jars.
4. Sunny Apricot Window Clings
Bring some sunshine indoors! Cut out your favorite colored apricots and carefully cover both sides with clear contact paper or laminate them. These cheerful clings can then be taped to windows, letting the light shine through their vibrant colors.
5. Apricot “Seed” Shakers
Create a fun sensory shaker! Cut out two identical colored apricots. Glue them together around the edges, leaving a small opening. Fill the pocket you've created with dried rice or beans, then seal the opening to make a lively apricot “seed” shaker.
6. Summer Apricot Garland
Brighten any space with a festive apricot garland. Cut out multiple colored apricots, then punch a hole at the top of each. Thread a long piece of yarn or string through the holes, spacing the apricots evenly, to hang across a doorway or wall.
7. Apricot Patch Puppets
Bring your apricots to life as fun puppets! Cut out your colored apricot shapes. Glue each apricot to a craft stick or roll a strip of construction paper into a loop for a finger puppet handle, ready for imaginative play.
8. “Basket of Apricots” Collage
Design a bountiful “Basket of Apricots” collage. On a piece of poster board, draw or cut out a simple basket shape from construction paper. Then, glue your various colored and cut-out apricots inside and around the basket for a delightful harvest scene.
9. Sweet Apricot Bookmarks
Keep your place in style with these sweet bookmarks. Cut out single apricots, perhaps leaving a small border. Glue each apricot onto a sturdy strip of cardstock or construction paper, then add a small hole and a yarn tassel at the top for a charming finish.
10. Apricot Life Cycle Wheel
Learn about how apricots grow with an interactive wheel! Cut out a large circle from construction paper for your wheel base. Divide it into sections representing stages like ‘flower,' ‘green fruit,' and ‘ripe fruit' (using your colored apricot for this section). Secure a pointer and your ripe apricot to the center with a brad fastener to spin and explore.
