What you will need:

  • 7 inch paper plate (dessert size)
  • Black pom pom balls (1 inch size)
  • 2 wiggly eyes
  • 2 black chenille stems
  • Red cardstock
  • Pink cardstock
  • Black foam sheet
  • Quick dry tacky glue, glue dots, or school glue

 

How to make the Black Cat Pom Pom Paper Plate Craft:

1. Glue the pom poms to the paper plate. You can use the quick dry tacky glue, but using glue dots is a really ingenious way to stick them on. Just stick the pom pom onto a glue dot, remove the glue dot from the strip, and stick it on the plate. No mess!

2. Cut a black chenille stem into thirds. Twist the three pieces together in the middle and fan the stems out like cat whiskers. Glue the twisted spot into place in the middle of the paper plate, on top of the pom poms. Do this two times, one for each set of whiskers.
