By Meream9 Comments

Minions (of Despicable Me fame) are all the rage right now. They happen to be offered together with a popular fast food kiddie set but we don't recommend buying when the DIY route is much more fun. Check out the Minion craft projects below and happy making!

1 Pin Cushion or Softie

Pin Cushion or Softie How cute is this DIY Minion softie? This is made of felt and fiberfill. Googly eyes were also used but if you don't have any, it would be easy to construct a pair using white and black felt. For those who are beginners at making softies or have always wanted to make a unique-looking pin cushion, this fun Minion pattern is perfect for you.

3 Goodie Jar

Goodie Jar Here we have another Minion idea using jars. Unlike the previous craft tutorial, though, you will not necessarily be filling these cute jars with slime. They have many uses, as a matter of fact. They're great for storing odds and ends in your kid's homework area. You can also use them as goodie containers in a Minion-themed party. This project calls for satin paint in yellow and enamel glass writers for making the face details.

These would look so cute for organizing artwork in your kid's room. The best part: your little humans will have a great time painting these Minions, too. For this easy project, you will need paint in yellow and blue, paintbrushes, and black marker. The mess potential here is huge so make sure that you cover your work table with newspaper first. Aprons will help in keeping everyone clean as well.
