10 Craft Ideas to do With Pretzel Coloring Pages
Once those vibrant pretzel coloring pages are complete and stacking up, these easy, affordable crafts are the perfect way to give them a second life!
1. Pretzel Party Garland
Cut out your colorful pretzels from the finished coloring pages. Punch two small holes near the top of each pretzel shape, then string them together with a piece of yarn or ribbon to create a festive garland. Hang it across a doorway, mantel, or classroom bulletin board for instant pretzel-themed decor.
2. Pretzel Shop Play Set
Transform your coloring pages into props for an imaginary pretzel stand! Cut out various pretzel designs and glue them onto small cardboard boxes to create “menu items.” Use construction paper to make little “price tags” featuring your pretzel art, perfect for a fun role-play experience.
3. Pretzel “Salt” Shakers
Glue a cut-out pretzel coloring page design around the outside of a clean, empty spice jar or small container. Fill the container with white glitter or small white beads to mimic salt crystals. Shake it over your pretend baked goods for a fun, sensory play item.
4. Pretzel Wearable Badges
Cut out your favorite pretzel designs from the colored pages. Glue each design onto a piece of sturdy cardboard or a flattened bottle cap for durability. Attach a safety pin to the back with strong glue or tape, and now you have unique pretzel badges to wear or share!
5. Pretzel Coaster Art
Carefully cut out a pretzel image from your coloring page, making sure it fits within a 4×4 inch square. Glue it onto a piece of felt or cork, then apply a layer of clear contact paper or decoupage glue over the top for a waterproof finish. These make fun, unique coasters for drinks.
6. Pretzel Mobile Masterpiece
Cut out several distinct pretzel shapes from your completed pages. Attach a string to the top of each pretzel with tape or a punched hole. Suspend these strings at varying lengths from a lightweight hanger, a criss-crossed pair of popsicle sticks, or a paper plate, creating a delightful dangling pretzel mobile.
7. Pretzel Stick Puppets
Choose your favorite pretzel characters or designs from the coloring pages and carefully cut them out. Securely glue each cutout to the top of a craft stick or popsicle stick. Now you have a set of charming pretzel puppets ready for storytelling or a mini puppet show.
8. “Golden Pretzel” Treasure Map
Design a simple “treasure map” on a piece of brown paper bag, leading to a hidden “golden pretzel.” Cut out a beautifully colored pretzel from your pages, glue it onto yellow construction paper, and then cut around it to give it a “golden” outline. This becomes the “treasure” at the end of your map quest!
9. Pretzel Frame Decor
Cut thin strips from your colored pretzel pages. Use these strips to decorate the edges of a plain picture frame, gluing them on like a border. Alternatively, cut out small pretzel shapes and glue them randomly around the frame, making it a unique pretzel-themed display for a photo.
10. Pretzel Desk Organizer Cups
Take clean, empty tin cans (like soup cans) or sturdy paper cups. Cut large sections from your finished pretzel coloring pages and wrap them around the outside of the cans/cups, securing with glue. Use these decorated containers to store pencils, crayons, or other craft supplies on your desk.
