10 Craft Ideas to do With Chilli Coloring Pages
Once those vibrant chilli coloring pages are all filled in, don't let them gather dust! Turn your colorful creations into these easy and affordable chilli-themed crafts.
1. Spicy Garland Stringers
Cut out several individual colored chillies from your finished pages. Punch a small hole in the stem of each chilli, then thread them onto a piece of yarn or string. Hang your fiery garland across a doorway or window to add a touch of spice to any room!
2. “Hot Stuff” Bookmarks
Cut out a vibrant chilli design and glue it firmly to the top of a sturdy strip of cardstock or a wide popsicle stick. You can add a decorative ribbon to the top for extra flair. Never lose your page again with this unique and spicy bookmark!
3. Chilli Puppet Pals
Carefully cut out your favorite colored chilli from a finished page. Glue it securely to a craft stick, a clean popsicle stick, or an unsharpened pencil. Now you have a fun little hand puppet ready for imaginative play or to peek out of a plant pot!
4. Fiery Fridge Magnets
Cut out small, colorful chilli shapes from your pages. Glue each cut-out onto a piece of stiff cardboard (like from a cereal box) and then attach a small magnet to the back with strong glue. Display your artistic chillies and hold up important notes on the fridge!
5. Chilli Placemat Perfection
Choose a large, bold chilli coloring page once it's colored. Glue it onto a slightly larger piece of construction paper for a colorful border, then cover both sides with clear contact paper or run it through a laminator. This creates a durable, wipeable placemat perfect for snack time or messy crafts.
6. Spicy Story Cubes
Cut out different sized chilli designs from several colored pages. Glue these designs onto the sides of small cardboard boxes (you can cut down tissue boxes or cereal boxes). Roll the cubes and tell a fun, imaginative story inspired by the chilli designs that land face up!
7. “Grow Your Own Heat” Seed Packet Holders
Decorate plain small envelopes or small brown paper bags by gluing cut-out chillies to the front. These make charming holders for actual chilli seeds if you have them, or they can store tiny craft supplies like beads or buttons.
8. Chilli Crown of Courage
Cut out many small chilli shapes from your completed coloring pages. Create a head-fitting band from a strip of poster board or construction paper, securing the ends with tape or a stapler. Glue your cut-out chillies all around the band to wear your spicy creation with pride!
9. Three-Dimensional Chilli Wall Art
Cut out several chillies, some slightly larger than others, from multiple colored pages. Gently fold them down the middle or glue two identical cut-outs back-to-back. Arrange and glue these pieces onto a contrasting piece of poster board, giving your chilli art a cool pop-out, 3D effect.
10. Chilli Coasters (Sealed with Heat)
Cut out circular or square shapes that feature your colored chillies. Glue each cut-out onto a piece of sturdy cardboard. Then, apply several coats of Mod Podge or clear glue over the top, allowing each layer to dry, to create a sealed, waterproof coaster for your drinks.
