Tutorial on making a stick house by hand:

First make the frame of the log cabin on the second floor, that is, the wall. After sticking it with glue, cut off the higher ice cream sticks on both sides and smooth them with a file to make them look like a cabin. Then make the eaves on the first floor and the balcony on the second floor. Based on the second step, add doors, windows, eaves and balconies. You need to pay attention to the bonding of the eaves.

After making the ice cream stick house, glue the above parts together to create a shed and a bench on the second floor. Put the house into the yard and add a staircase also made of ice cream sticks. The beautiful stick house is ready, and it becomes a work of art when placed on the table.

Because ice cream sticks generally have no burrs and are straight, they can be used as simple rulers. You can also use ice cream sticks to make clips. First prepare a dovetail clip, then use two ice cream sticks and tape them to the two tail handles of the dovetail clip. Such a clip is ready, but this kind of clip is only suitable for holding some light and compact things.

You can use ice cream sticks to make a storage basket, and place the two ice cream sticks in an aligned manner so that the distance between them is about the same as the length of the ice cream sticks. Apply hot melt glue to two ice cream sticks, and then use hot melt glue to add two ice cream sticks to the corresponding sides. Then glue two ice cream sticks on the other two sides until they are as high as you need, and the storage basket is ready.
