Printing and Cutting the 3-D Bee Printable by Hand Other than printing and cutting out the pieces, the directions will all be the same. If you aren’t a Cricut or Silhouette user, I put a PDF in the file downloads for this project, so you can still make yourself a whole swarm of bees. I ended up making a Print then Cut file for my Cricut Explore, and that saved me about 35-40 minutes cutting out the second bee. I decided not to cut out the wings’ inner pixels, which made it a little easier. But it’s a little tricky because of the tiny holes for the legs, antennae, and stinger. I cut everything out by hand with a combination of scissors and a precision knife. I’ve made two of these little guys so far.

You can use scissors and a precision knife if you’d like. I used an Elmer’s Craft Bond Gluestick, for this but I’ve since started using this amazing Crafter’s Tape for my folded paper projects and I LOVE IT.

Legally, I have to tell you that this post may contain affiliate links and that you can read the whole boring disclosure policy here. But while I started working on that, I thought I would teach you how to make them yourself. I’ll probably start with just three or four for now. I sent her a picture after I finished the first one. So, now, in my IRL craft time, I decided I needed to make her this 3D printable Minecraft bee. And she’s in LOVE with them (so am I, obviously). Well, a few weeks ago, Minecraft launched an update that added the cutest, squariest, fattest, little bees. It’s essentially a virtual craft night, and it’s been so much fun. Now it would be way too long of a drive for that, so we decided to start playing Minecraft together online. One of the things I miss most from before our big move this year is that Thursday night was always craft night at my best friend’s house.
