Give small-scale art a fitting gallery treatment with this craft-stick easel.

What you'll need

  • Acrylic paint
  • 4 craft sticks
  • Glue
  • Small piece of card stock
  • Pencil (to hold easel in place while it's drying)
  • Paper strips

How to make it

  1. Paint the 4 craft sticks and let them dry.

  2. Tiny Easel - Step 2

    Glue a card stock triangle hinge (A) to three of the sticks, leaving a space between the front two sticks and the back stick, as shown (B).

  3. Tiny Easel - Step 3

    Glue the fourth stick across the front to create a shelf (C) and use a pencil to prop it in place while the glue dries.

  4. Finally, bend the easel at the hinge and attach one end of a 2-inch paper strip to the shelf and the other end to the back stick for added stability.
