What Are Some Ways to Make Wings for My Bee?
You don’t have to add wings to the bee for this to be cute, but it is fun to use something to give it a look of flight.
Depending on how crafty you are, you can cut some tulle or fabric and sew them into shape before attaching to the back of your bee.
Another option is to cut them out of construction paper, tissue paper, or even print a template out online and attach to your craft stick bee.
