Mouse Finger Puppet

These finger puppets are very easy to make. They are also so cute, that kids just love them. All you need is a small piece of paper, scissors, glue and colour pencils.

Cut out a quadrant (see the diagram below), roll and glue a small cone. Then cut out ears, a tail and whiskers. When cutting the whiskers, leave a narrow gap in the middle for gluing. Put everything together, then paint eyes and nose. And don't forget to curl up the whiskers!

Thanks for posting this easy, cute little project. I made one for my 2 year old and then let my 4 year old cut out his own shapes and color in the details. It was a great, easy rainy-day project!

I'm glad your kids liked it! Check out the other projects, too. Most of them have proved to be good for my 5 (almost) and 3 (double) year olds.
Thanks a lot for visiting and commenting :)

Floral greeting card with spiral flowers

-
Image
I tried to make a greeting card with three-dimensional flowers. The techniques is described in detail in " Paper Crafts Workshop: A Beginner's Guide to Techniques & Projects ". In short: Draw a swirl on coloured paper. Cut the paper following the swirl design with decorative scissors (waves of different types). Start cutting from the outside to the centre. Roll the swirl from the outside towards the centre around a thin round stick or using a quilling tool. Remove the stick and let the rolled paper free. It opens a little into a flower. Pull the centre (a small circle) of the swirl and glue it underneath. Cut out leaves, place them on a soft pad and gently press in veins. UPDATE: Don't miss the video tutorial on how to make such roses.
