How to complete this tutorial step by step?
Materials
To make these bats you will need:
- black paper sheets (A4, 130 g/m²)
- half polystyrene balls
- black acrylic paint and a brush
- wooden skewers
- funny eyes to stick
- black pom-poms
- a pair of scissors
- a precision cutter
- a stapler
To hang your creations, prepare some push pins and transparent thread.
Step 1
Paint a half-sphere made of polystyrene Ø 6 cm with black acrylic paint and let it dry for about 30 minutes.
TIP: Stick the half-sphere on a wooden skewer to paint without getting your fingers dirty!
Step 2
Fold a black sheet of paper in accordion style.
TIP: use 130 g/m² paper for easy folding!
Step 3
Close the "accordion" and then staple in the center to maintain the shape.
Step 4
Once the paint is dry, stick funny eyes into the half-sphere.
Step 5
Cut out 2 small black triangles to create the ears of the bat.
Step 6
Make 2 small notches in the polystyrene so that you can slide the ears in.
Note: it is also possible to glue the ears behind the half-ball.
Step 7
Cut 2 pieces of chenille of 6 cm and two others of 3 cm.
Step 8
Wrap the small pipe cleaners at the end of the large pipe cleaners to create the legs of the bat.
Step 9
Plant the legs at the back of the half-sphere.
Step 10
Glue the body and wings using a glue gun.
Step 11
To hang the bat, plant a metal hook at the back and attach a clear string.
