APLI scissors

APLI white glue

APLI pompoms

APLI quilling

APLI wool

APLI premium knife

APLI little eyes

A permanent marker pen

 

STEP 1

Cut out the two parts of the puppet. To make the finger holes, better use the knife to cut a cross and then cut out the hole with scissors or the knife.

Now it’s time to make the other part of the puppet. Cut several threads of wool, insert them through the upper hole and make a knot to secure the tail well. Then stick the black mini pompoms on with a bit of white glue.

Stick the two parts together with white glue and give it the final touch. Draw the mouth, the nose and the ears with a permanent marker. You can also trim the threads to give it a more uniform finish.
