How to Draw a TV Remote
Draw a TV remote in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the remote.
Step 1: The remote
Down the middle of your paper draw a tall box with soft corners, much taller than it is wide.
Tip Like a chocolate bar standing up.
Step 2: 2 big eyes
Near the top of the remote draw 2 round eyes side by side. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 3: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a U smile from eye to eye, and a small oval cheek at each end.
Step 4: The big round button
In the middle of the remote draw a big round button with a small circle in its middle.
Step 5: 4 arrows
On the big button draw 4 tiny triangle arrows: one pointing up, one down, one left and one right.
Step 6: Round buttons
Draw 2 small round buttons above the big one and 2 below. Add a tiny power button at the top.
Step 7: Long buttons
Near the bottom draw 3 short flat bars across the remote, one under the other.
Step 8: The tip
On the top end draw a short flat tip, a little narrower than the remote, with 3 short beam lines.
Step 9: Sparkles
Draw 3 sparkle stars round the remote.
Step 10: Yellow tip and sparkles
Go over your lines, then colour the tip and the 3 sparkles yellow.
Step 11: Sky buttons, pink cheeks
Colour the 4 small round buttons sky blue and the cheeks pink.
Step 12: Grey buttons, red power
Colour the big button and the long bars light grey, and the power button red.
Step 13: Dark grey remote
Colour the remote dark grey around the eyes, cheeks and buttons, and your remote is ready to click!
Tip Leave the eyes white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a TV remote, drawn by you.
