Tip: you can make “plastic” monster by adding eyes on the side of plastic trash bag. Pull the top a little bit so you have wide open, but not_so_wide_open mouth. Put some plastic bottles inside so it’s not lying flat and as an example.

Cute things don’t have to be handy!

Express your individuality by creating this attractive uncommon thing

Originally they use special wax to stick the yarn on the picture. We suggest using white glue as more handy one. But of course, if you have that wax that would even be better!

Craft supplies

Cardboard or plywood piece

Yarn - as many colors as you plan to use in your artwork (we used 4: camel, yellow, blue, blue lagoon)

Pencil

White glue

Toothpick

Scissors

Directions

Draw design that you want on cardboard or plywood piece

Spread the glue on one zone you wish to start with

Start laying yarn onto that zone (move from outer edge to the center), adjusting it with toothpick

Follow up with other zones

Tips: 1) do not cover with glue all the picture at once because glue will be dry before you get there. Only do one zone at a time; 2) lay the yarn starting from outer edge so if you have two loose ends of the yarn you have it inside the figure and can neatly secure them; 3) you may want to spray the picture with sealer so it won’t collect the dust

This easy-to-do yet charming piece will catch your attention in a click. You can hang it on the wall or stick to fridge - any way works!

Craft supplies

4 jumbo pre-colored craft sticks

Embellishments - we used gemstones and mini pompoms

Picture (what is frame with nothing to be framed?)

School glue

Loaded glue gun

Piece of thread or couple magnets

Directions

Hotglue craft sticks together to form a frame

Decorate it with embellishments you chose

Glue the picture from the wrong side of frame with school glue, let it dry

Hotglue thread loop or magnets onto wrong side of the frame

Display and let your attention be caught! This is cool thing to have for yourself or gift to anybody you want to see your picture while you’re not there!
