Naughty mice for the Christmas season
First, the template for the ears is transferred to the foam rubber and then cut out. So that ears and body have the same color, everything is now first painted in gray. Once this primer has dried, the inside of the ears and the face are set off in skin color.
The mouth, nose, cheeks and eyes follow. These succeed easily if you proceed step by step and let these steps dry well in between: first the white, then sea green, stone gray and finally the white light reflex. Now glue the painted ears to the sides of the head.
While the glue dries, transfer the pattern for the hat to the craft felt and cut it to size. You can also vary the length of the hat to suit your taste. So you can subsequently bring them into the funniest shapes.
Hot glue is best suited for gluing the caps together. To do this, carefully apply a thin strip of the glue to one of the long edges, let it cool a bit briefly and then roll up the cap. Once the hot glue has cooled, the opening of the cap can be stretched a little more with your fingers and brought into shape. Finally, glue small gold-colored beads as "bells" to the tips of the hats.
For the scarf, cut out strips about 1.5 cm wide in different lengths. Make a few small cuts at the ends to create the typical fringe look
Now just attach the scarf and hat to the little mice with craft glue or hot glue and they are ready to be given as gifts or to spread a pre-Christmas mood within your own four walls.
Have fun!
