Step by Step Thanksgiving Corn Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw the First Corn Stick
Start by drawing a long rectangle with wavy edges, almost like a fuzzy caterpillar. This is your first corn stick!
Step 2 – Add Another Corn Stick
Draw another similar shape slightly behind the first one, overlapping a bit. This gives your dish more dimension.
Step 3 – Stack a Third Corn Stick
Add one more wavy rectangle on top, peeking out behind the others. Now you’ve got a delicious stack of corn.
Step 4 – Place the Corn on a Plate
Draw an oval underneath your corn to create the dinner plate. Make sure the corn looks like it’s resting nicely on it.
Step 5 – Outline the Plate Rim
Add another, larger oval around the first one to give the plate a thick rim. Now your corn has a real place setting!
Step 6 – Give Your Corn a Smile
Finally, draw two round eyes and a smiling mouth on the front corn stick. Your Thanksgiving corn is cute and ready to serve!
