10 Craft Ideas to do With Jackalope Coloring Pages
Once those vibrant jackalope coloring pages are complete and piling up, transform them into something new and exciting with these easy, affordable crafts!
1. Jackalope Horn Headband
Color and carefully cut out the jackalope's face and magnificent horns from your page. Glue these onto a strip of construction paper measured to fit around your head, securing it into a loop. Now you're ready to explore the mythical desert!
2. “Wanted: Jackalope” Poster
Cut out your most legendary jackalope from its coloring page. Glue it onto a piece of brown kraft paper or cardstock. Above it, boldly write “WANTED!” and below, add “Reward: Unforgettable Tales.”
3. Leaping Jackalope Finger Puppets
Choose and cut out a small, dynamic jackalope. Flip it over and glue two small paper rings onto the back for your index and middle fingers. Now your jackalope can hop and frolic across any surface!
4. Jackalope Desert Diorama
Cut out your colored jackalope and glue a small paper stand or a pipe cleaner to its back so it can stand upright. Create a mini desert scene inside a shoebox lid using construction paper for sand dunes and small twigs for cacti. Place your jackalope proudly in its natural habitat!
5. Mythical Glow Jar
Carefully cut out a jackalope silhouette or a full figure from your coloring page. Glue it onto a piece of parchment paper or vellum, then wrap and secure this paper around a clean glass jar. Place a battery-operated tea light inside for a magical, glowing decoration.
6. “Trail of Legends” Stepping Stones
Have kids color and cut out several large jackalope profiles or just their distinctive horned heads. Mount these onto sturdy poster board and laminate them with clear contact paper. These can then be used as fun “stepping stones” for an indoor game or a decorative path.
7. Jackalope Story Sticks
Cut out several distinct jackalope images from your coloring pages, perhaps showing different expressions or actions. Glue each cutout to the top of a craft stick or popsicle stick. Use these visual aids to tell fantastic tales of the elusive jackalope!
8. Jackalope Wall Art Pennant
Trim your colored jackalope page into a pennant shape (triangle or banner). Glue it onto a slightly larger piece of sturdy construction paper or felt for a border. Punch a hole at the top corners, thread a piece of yarn through, and hang your unique art.
9. Jackalope Trading Cards
Shrink or carefully cut out a small, vibrant jackalope from your coloring page. Glue it onto a piece of cardstock cut to standard trading card size. On the back, write a fun “fact” or “legend” about the jackalope, then trade them with friends!
10. Desktop Jackalope Guard
Cut out a sturdy jackalope shape from your finished page. Cut a thin slit across the bottom of a toilet paper roll, then insert your jackalope into the slit so it stands upright. Decorate the roll to look like a desert mound or tree stump, creating a unique desk guardian.
