Hey Friends!
Welcome back! This has been delayed a long time, sorry! Nonetheless, this is probably the easiest DIY I have ever done.
I purchased everything from Dollar Tree for $6 and it only took me like 30-45 minutes to make!
First, I am going to list the steps and then I will add the photos in order! Some have messaged that they don’t like me writing so much in the steps and then adding the photos to cut off the wording so let me try and change that and see how it works!
Step 1: Cut the small circles to align evenly on the big foam circle to make for the ears.
Step 2: Put a toothpick in each small circle and pierce them into the big circle. Leave some space to put hot glue and then squeeze the pieces together until it’s cooled.
Step 3: Once the hot glue has cooled down, start painting! Put as many coats as you need too to get it to the right color you want!
Step 4: Once the paint has dried, pull apart the leaves from the stems start hot glueing them to the ear. Do the ears first! Try to flatten the leaves so it looks nice!
Step 5: Once you’ve done the ears. Start doing the body! Alternate in between the different color of the ears so it all meshes well. I put 3 layers of leaves on the body so it looks full.
Step 6: Hang it up! It’s super light so it’ll lay just about anywhere!
PHOTOS IN ORDER FOR STEP REFERENCE.
Thank you for checking it out! Don’t forget to tag me when you make it! You can always add a bow but I liked it by itself! If I end up adding one, I’ll update the blog!
Talk to you later! Stay magical!
