Popsicle Stick Log Cabin Ornament

Log cabins are my favorite, especially in the winter time when snow covers them. I thought i'd recreate one using my own popsicle sticks! It turned out beautiful and it's actually not too hard to make.

How to Make a Log Cabin out of Popsicle Sticks

If you're doing this with the kids, they might need some assistance on cutting the popsicle sticks.

If you want to personalize your Christmas ornament, just glue a square photo of the child looking out of the cabin window! That would make a great gift for parents or grandparents.
