Let’s start with Creeper and Cow.

Materials needed for

Creeper Windsock:

• Dark Green A3 cardstock

• Black A4 cardstock

• Green crepe paper steamers

• String or yarn

• Glue

• Scotch tape

• Scissors

• Hole Punch

• Pencil

• Stapler

• Green Acrylic Paint

Instructions:

1. Use the Free download DIY Minecraft Heros to create the creeper face. Print the creeper’s mouth and eyes on black A4 cardstock paper and cut them out. You can also print, cut, copy, and draw over the black A4, as you may not be able to see the printed lines.

2. Glue the creeper’s eyes and mouth on the green A3 cardstock.

3. Cut the small square from the downloaded file and copy the drawing on the A3 cardstock as in the picture. I used dark green acrylic paint to fill up the squares, but if you have dark green paper, you can cut ten small squares and glue them to the back side of the creeper’s face.

4. Turn back and attach the green crepe steamers with a scotch in the picture.

5. Then, Bring the corners of the green square together, forming a cylinder shape. Secure the edges with a stapler or tape, creating a windsock shape.

6. Pinch two holes for the strings on both sides. Cut a piece of string or yarn to the desired length for hanging the windsock, thread the yard through the holes, and tie knots to secure it.

7. Hang and Enjoy: Find a suitable outdoor location to hang your Minecraft windsock. Tie it to a tree branch, a hook, or any other secure spot where it can catch the breeze.

Now, let’s create the Minecraft

The Cow:

• White A4 cardstock

• Brown, Black, and White Crepe Paper Steamers

• String or yarn

• Glue or tape

• Scissors

Instructions:

1. Use the Free download DIY Minecraft Heroes to create the Cow’s face. Print the Cow’s muzzle and eyes on white A4 cardstock paper and cut them out, or print, cut, and paint.

2. Glue the Cow’s eyes and muzzle on the brown A3 cardstock. I used sparkling brown paper for the Cow’s face to create a face that shines more in the sunlight. Feel free to get creative with the colors and details to personalize your windsock further.

3. As in the picture, turn back and attach the crepe steamers with a scotch.

4. Then, bring the corners of the brown square together, forming a cylinder shape. Use the stapler or tape to secure the edges and create a windsock shape.

5. Pinch two holes for the stings at both sides. Cut a piece of string or yarn to the desired length for hanging the windsock, thread the yard through the holes, and tie knots to secure it.

6. Hang and Enjoy: Find a suitable outdoor location to hang your Minecraft windsock. Tie it to a tree branch, a hook, or any other secure spot where it can catch the breeze.
