What you will need:
Plastic milk jugs, and other plastic bottles
Craft Foam
Low Temp Mini Glue Gun
Scissors
A pole or stake (optional)
Acrylic Paint
How to make:
1. Wash out and let your milk jugs and other bottles dry.
2. Search the Internet for pictures of totem poles and decide what creatures you would like to put on your totem pole. Draw sketches of the animals or people you would like to include and the order in which you would like them to be on the totem pole.
3. Make each creature separately and then glue them all together on top of each other. Do not paint the jugs where you want to glue because the glue will pull the paint from the milk jugs.
4. Cut a hole in the bottom of each jug about four inches in diameter. Place the hole over the top of another jug and glue them together with hot melt glue.
5. Use craft foam to form beaks, wings, and snouts. Glue the foam shapes to the milk jugs with a low temp. glue gun and then paint the jugs with acrylic paint.
6. To place your totem outside drive a stake into the ground where you would like the totem pole, and slide the totem pole over the stake through the holes and tops of the milk jugs. Or you can place your totem next to a fence or pole and tie it to the fence using the handles of the jugs and rope.
