I needed to make hand puppets the other day and did not want to buy any additional supplies so I came up with this… A quick easy puppet DIY using what you probably already have:
– An old t-shirt, I used one where I just could not get stain out
– scissors
– thread
– acrylic paint (stolen from my 2-year-old’s craft box)
 |
My hand looks weird here, anyway’s fold a piece of paper in half and trace like above |
 |
When you open it up you have the template for your puppet, trace around your template (You would want to turn t-shirt inside out, I only thought of this after, oops) |
 |
Sew where you traced, it kinda looks like ghosts |
 |
cut outside your sewing |
 |
Now turn them inside out |
 |
Draw on the puzzle and start decorating, you might want to get kids involved for this step |
 |
Look I made a little girly 🙂 I glued on some buttons and bows…the possibilities are endless |
