This cute mouse was a huge hit with our readers three years
ago. We've simplified her and brought her back to stand in as
the perfect little-sister accompaniment to this year's
Jumbo
Elephant.
| Prep Time: About 2 to 3 hours | |
| What you need: | |
| Sheet of pink felt, 12 by 9 inches
Scissors Double-sided foam tape Gray hooded sweatshirt and sweatpants Fabric glue 2 pink felt circles, 5 inches in diameter 2 white or gray felt circles, 9 inches in diameter Duct tape Thick cotton cording Face paint (optional) | |
| Seasons: Halloween | |
| Materials: sweatshirt | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Trim the pink felt into a large oval and stick it to the front of the sweatshirt with double-sided foam tape. |
| 2. | For ears, glue the pink felt circles to the centers of the
white or gray felt circles. When dry, cut a pie-slice wedge from
each ensemble. Then overlap and glue together the cut edges to
create a conical ear. Attach the ears to the sweatshirt hood with
double-sided foam tape. |
| 3. | For a tail, duct-tape a length of thick cotton cording to the back of the sweatpants and pull the hem of the sweatshirt over the taped portion. |
| 4. | Use face paint to add a mouse nose and whiskers, if desired. |
