Handicrafts

Hi all, 

Recently I found some cute handicrafts kits at Daiso and can't wait to share with fellow handicraft lovers! This can be found at all Daiso store and can be done within 1 hour. Best of all, this handicraft doesn't require knitting or sewing skills. This can be found at the handicraft section in Daiso. It comes in 5 animal designs - Elephant, Tiger, Pig, Bear and Frog (which is not captured in the picture)


Oh, do note that I did not follow the exact instructions given, due to some amendments, I was able to make 2 Tigers instead of one!

In the kit would contain the wool, needle, wools, eyes, chain, beads and instructions to needle felting. 

To start off, separate the wools to the following proportions: 
1 big - Head for the big tiger
2 medium - Body for the big tiger and Head for the tiny tiger
7 small - 4 Ears for both tiger, front paws and tail for the big tiger



After which, you just need to roll up the wools as tightly as possible and then starting poking the rounded wool in all directions with the needle provided. (Patience my friend, this part is the tedious part)
You may want to be focus at this part, I poked myself with the needle least 7 times as I was watching TV while doing so. OUCH!

Roll into a tight ball

The wools will start to tighten up within 5-10 minutes of needle felting.

End result of needle felting

Eventually, you will end up with several balls of different sizes. Now all you need to do is to connect the parts to form the animal. One again, you do so by placing the part next to each other and start poking~ 



The end result is a very adorable puny little tiger!



Made Elelphant and Bunny as well. 



Hopefully I will have more happy things to share on my next post!

Ciaos!

With Loves
