SKU: v15925

How to do it 
1
Paint the cardboard tubes with craft paint.
2
Alternatively, cover some of the cardboard tubes with paper or card. Here we have secured the paper around the tube with a blob of Sticky Base.
3
Decorate the cardboard tubes with self-adhesive googly eyes etc. Make the nose by rolling a small piece of pipe cleaner into a coil. Attach the nose onto the tube with a small blob of Sticky Base.
4
Make stripes by wrapping pipe cleaners around the tube.
5
Fold a pipe cleaner in half and attach it onto the inside of the tube with a small blob of Sticky Base.
6
Attach pom-poms for the ears on these amusing creatures.
7
Stick the tubes together with blobs of Sticky Base between each tube.
8
Make the base by attaching Sticky Base around the edges of the tubes. Press the tubes onto a piece of card.
9
Once the Sticky Base is dry (takes approx. 24 hours), cut around the tubes.
