Ever wished to decorate your house with miniatures? ‘Cause most people do. From miniature cups and plates, to miniature shelves and cupboards, to miniature animals and birds, to even miniature houses, furniture and vehicles. But, what about miniature easels? And miniature paintings? How about you start by making one and using it as a décor? Now, you thinking how to make one? Don’t worry, we got your back! Just follow the following instructions.

Method:
1. Take two sticks and position themselves in the shape of an inverted triangle, open from the bottom.
2. Now, using hot glue gun, apply glue on both sticks, about one inch from the bottom, and paste a third stick on it.
3. Apply some more glue just under the third stick on both the sticks and paste a fourth popsicle stick, this time standing.
4. Turn over to the back.
5. Take another popsicle stick and cut the top curved part off.
6. Paste the shorter, curved piece on where the first two sticks meet at the top.
7. Again, apply some glue directly below the stuck piece and stick the longer cut piece, this time, a bit slanted, to form a stand.
8. Let it dry.
9. Voila! Your Popsicle easel stand is ready to use. You can either place mini paintings on it, or place a photograph on it.

Tips:
1. You can paint the easel and decorate it with various embellishments like gems, stones and beads if you wish to.
2. You can also draw patterns all over the easel if you wish to, or stamp patterns over the sticks.
