Start with a piece of brown paper and tape. You can use different colors for the owl base to make your colorful owl craft your own. We went with a traditional brown.

Roll the brown paper into a cone so that the short side of the paper is the height of the cone.

Tape the end of the paper the full length of the cone to hold it in place. If you do not have tape, you can certainly glue the paper in place. You will just need to wait for the glue to dry before moving to the next step.

Next, grab your scissors because we're going to put those scissor skills to work. Cut off the top and bottom of the cone so the paper is level.

At the top of the cone, fold two sides slightly to create a curve. This should leave the other two sides pointed up.

Next, grab the yellow paper and the scissors.

Cut two circles out. They should be about a size of a quarter.

Grab the light brown paper or paper bag.

Start by cutting out an oval shape approximately 3 inches wide and 2.5 inches tall. Holding the oval so the longer end is down, cut each side of the oval off making a half-moon shape. It only needs to be an inch wide. with the remaining middle piece of paper, cut the top into a half circle which should give you a tall rainbow shape.

Accordion fold the middle rainbow piece of paper.

Next, grab the yellow circles and your googly eyes. If you do not have plastic googly eyes, you can create your own by cutting out white circles. Using a black marker, draw bright eyes.

Glue the googly eyes onto the yellow circles. Then glue the yellow circles towards the top of the owl's head.

Grab reminant yellow piece of paper.

With the remaining yellow paper, cut out a small diamond/kite shape to create the owl's beak

Pinch the beak towards the bottom to give it a little curve outwards.

Glue the beak right below the owl's eyes.

Next, glue the light brown paper pieces to the owl body.

The half circles go to the side o the beak with the flat end lining up with the outside of the cone. Glue the accordion rainbow shape to the bottom of the owl.

Viola, you have your own wise owl.

If you want to take it a step further, a great idea is to have the kids go outside and find a small tree branch. Glue the owl to the tree brand and you have your own cute owl art piece that will be a great addition to any Fall home decor.
