We LOVE Owls here at Red Ted Art, I don’t know what it is about owls, but they are just so cute and adorable and they are PERFECT for crafting – as you have so many distinct features. Browsing my blog recently, I noticed that we did have quite a number of Owl Crafts and Ideas to share with you, so I thought, I would bring them all together in one place.
These Owl Ideas are perfect for owl lovers all year round or for a “less spooky” Halloween. If you are looking for more ideas, we also have a fantastic selection of Autumn Crafts for Kids for you to browse!
Owl Books and Stories for Kids
I will kick the owl crafts off with a super simple pom pom owl craft.. less for the craft itself, but for the list of 10 Gorgeous Owl Books that go with it.. as you can read any of those lovely 10 owly books.. and then check out all of the crafts below to go with them!
…there really is nothing quite like a nice story and a craft to go with it! Check out our Owl Books and Owl Craft today.

Owls are very wise, a great animal to be obsessed with! Love the owl pumpkin–not sure if I have the skills to carve like that though!

Several dead or unhelpful links when these links are followed. The white owl pumpkin, the one I came specifically to learn about, when I go to your link about it, leads to a dead blog link. *sigh* Very disappointing.
Red Ted Art says
Oh no! Thanks for letting me know! Will investigate! Sometimes it is hard to keep on top of other sites closing. So sorry!
Red Ted Art says
PS I have checked the owl pumpkin, YES, that is indeed now gone. So sorry. BUT ALL of the OTHER Links are all live and working, so I am not sure which “several” you are referring to. Can you let me know which other crafts you are having problems with? Thank you!
