Taking Time Out to Craft

Flocked Chick DIY from Styrofoam

Mar 12, 2016 by Morena 1 Comment

I’m still flocking all the things!  I showed you how I made flocked bunnies and custom flocked cards.  Today I’m going to show you how to make adorable flocked chicks in a nest!  I used styrofoam eggs to make this project affordable and light.  With all the different colors of flocking powder available, you can make one in almost any color.  I love how the simple addition of flocking powder makes the styrofoam look and feel plush and fluffy.

Turn a styrofoam egg into a plush, cuddly sprink chick just by adding flocking powder.  This flocked chick will make great Easter decor!

Supplies Used to make a Flocked Chick from Styrofoam:

  • Large Styrofoam Egg
  • Styrofoam Ring
  • Chalky Finish Paint (choose a color that matches the flocking)
  • Martha Stewart Flocking Powder
  • Mod Podge or glue
  • Green Yarn
  • Metal Sheet (for the beak)
step 1 copyStep one:  Paint the egg with Chalky Finish Paint.  Choose a color that matches the flocking powder you are using.  This will keep you from having white spots of styrofoam peeking through the finish.

step 2 copyStep two:  Paint a section of the painted egg with Mod Podge.  Sprinkle the flocking powder on the wet glue. Repeat this until the entire surface has been covered. I covered my egg twice to give it a thick flocked appearance.

step3Step three:  Wrap the styrofoam ring with green yarn to make a grassy “nest” for the chick to sit in.

Now you can have fun embellishing your flocked chick! I made a tiny glittered crown out of card stock. I used glossy paint to make the eyes, and made a cone out of a bit of metal sheet to create a beak. I used a bit of glue to add all these items to the chick. Once everything is dry, simply place the chick in the “grass”. Have fun crafting and creating for spring!
