How to Make DIY Pizza Paper Squishy

Step 1. To start, draw a slice of pizza on one piece of your white construction paper.  I have added some pepperoni, some crust, and a cute little pizza face.

You can get creative with what you add to your pizza drawing depending on how you would like your slice to look when it’s finished!

Step 2. Now, it’s time to color your pizza in, so get your markers and take your time making it look pretty.

Step 3. Feel free to add whatever fun details you would like as you are decorating your slice. You could choose to include things like extra toppings, a sweet smile, eyes, and more.

This is when you get to be creative and customize your pizza.

Step 4. Now, get your wide transparent tape and use it to cover your entire pizza drawing.

Step 5. Get another piece of white construction paper and put it directly underneath the one with the pizza drawing. The edges should line up perfectly.

You will be cutting both pages to form the front and back of your squishy.

Step 6. Now, get your scissors and cut out the pizza and the page behind it.

Step 7. When you are done cutting, you should have two pizza shapes of the same size. The top one will have your pizza drawing on it, while the one underneath will be blank.

Step 8. Attach the two pizza shapes together using your tape but be sure to leave an opening on the “crust” side for the stuffing. You will probably need to cut the tape into pieces for a neat and tidy look.

Step 9. Cover the blank side of the squishy with wide transparent tape as well.

Step 10. Be sure to cover the narrow tip of the pizza with tape as well. Use your scissors to cut the tape so that it fits neatly.

Step 11. It is time to start stuffing. Get your stuffing and add it to the open “crust” side of your squishy.

Step 12. Start closing your squishy using tape.

Step 13. Continue adding tape until the squishy is closed.

Step 14. Your cute pizza squishy is complete!

How Long Does This DIY Pizza Paper Squishy Take to Make?
