This Sheriff Badge Craft is one of my favorite cowboy kids crafts will make sure you are offical when you dress up as the town Sheriff. Every town needs a sheriff, especially to defend against the bad guys.
It is fun to get your friends together and play pretend.
You can be cowboys and defeat the bad guys. Cowboys need a few important things – a trusty sidekick horse, a badge (if your sheriff), a hat and a weapon. We will show you how to craft each of these.
Before getting to play pretend, you can craft your costumes! If you have a Toy Story fan in your house, he will need one of these badge’s to be Woody for the day!
It’s two activities in one, a craft and then a toy! This is brilliant because Mum might some quiet time after the badge is completed!

DIY Sheriff Badge Craft
Let’s start by making your Sheriff’s badge…
 |
Craft Supplies:
|
 |
Step #1: Use the sheriff badge template we provided to create the shape for your badge. Trace the template over the cardboard and cut out your badge. |
 |
Step #2: Paint the badge with your yellow paint. Allow it to dry. Once dry, print “Sheriff” on the center with a black marker. Paint over the badge with your gold sparkle paint. |
 |
Step #3: While your badge dries, cut out a strip of paper. (Use the scrap from your badge shape template you printed) Place glue on either side. Be sure to leave a space in the middle. |
 |
Step #4: Glue the strip of paper on the back of your badge. Make sure it is in the center and facing the same way as your “Sheriff” label on the front. |
 |
Step #5: Slide the bobby pin over this strip of paper. This will allow you to place the badge onto your shirt. You can also use a pin, just be careful not to poke yourself because they are sharp. |
Appoint the new Sheriff in town and provide them with their badge of authority!
