ARTS and crafts on social media have been racking up views and likes with some creations going viral.
The paper cow trend on TikTok has users wanting to DIY and customize their very own animals.
Paper cows are trending on TikTok as users rush to create their very own versions of the animal.
The 2D cow – made out of paper and drawn by hand – is taking the social media platform by storm with videos garnering over 104M views.
@bellathepapercow, one of the more popular accounts, has over 31k followers who tune in to watch the digital creator dress up the little figurine.
TikTok users have taken it upon themselves to become a part of the ongoing trend by creating their own DYI paper cows, cats, dogs, and even pandas.
Making a paper cow (or any animal) is quite simple – all you need is paper, colored pencils or markers, and clear tape.
First start off by drawing your animal of choice on a piece of paper, in this case, a cow, and then cut it out as cleanly as possible.
Then color in the animal – for the cow, make sure to draw its black and white spots, rosy-pink nose, small horns, and hooves.
Once perfect, laminate your animal or use clear tape as a lamination alternative.
Now that you have finished your 2D animal, you can bring it to life by drawing out clothes, accessories, and more so that your animal can be customized.
In order to create items that fit your paper cows, be sure to trace your desired clothing items over the top of the animal and then laminate them so that they can easily be taped to your animal without ripping or tearing the original paper.
Some users have gone as far as to create cardboard homes for their animals.
Most users have fallen in love with the child-like creativity behind the DIY animals.
When they don't have the time to create their own cows, many take the time to give other users suggestions for upcoming content.
After users asked @bellathepapercow to make Bella receive and open up a Shein haul, she caved in and posted a video that racked up over 98k views.
Some users, however, do not seem to understand the hype behind paper cows and animals.
One TikToker commented: "That’s a waste of paper."
