Nothing gives away your age like being obsessed with pipe cleaners and pompoms. Yup 70's child front and centre! Except when I was little they actually were for cleaning pipes and only came in Yellow from the smoke shop. Hard to believe I'm only mid 30's right?
Moving swiftly on, just made these for the little guy and had to share, tons of fun, Pompoms, Googly eyes, Pipe Cleaners, Ribbon, and ... Milk Bottle Tops, heaven.
Milk Bottle Top
Glue on your pompoms
Glue on two more for eyes and 2 Googly eyes
Wrap base of lid in ribbon/bias tape just to hide the ugly plastic. If you have plenty of pompoms you could use those instead
Cut a small piece of Pipe cleaners for fangs and 8 Z shaped pieces for legs
Glue on fangs
Flip him/her over and glue the legs in place, hold on to each one for 5-10 secs to make sure it's glued properly or it will come off when you start rearranging the legs.
Flip it back over and play around with the legs until it either sits or stands.
It's ok they're tame, just don't feed them after midnight! (Ancient movie reference ahoy!)
