| Pompom Mouse Free Craft Project ~ Compliments of Craft At Home |
Material:
1 large white pompom (2 inch)
1 medium white pompom (1 1/2 inch)
2 small white pompom (1/2 inch)
2 teeny white pompom (1/8 inch)
2 teeny pink pompom (1/8 inch)
(All pompom sizes are approximate and may vary with different manufacturers)
White embroidery thread
Tacky glue (hot glue for grown ups)
White craft foam
Scissors
How to:
Glue together a large and medium white pompom and allow the glue to dry.
Glue together the 2 teeny white pompoms and 1 teeny pink pompom, in a triangle shape. This will be the
mouse's nose. Set aside for the glue to dry.
Trim away one side of the large and medium pompom until it is flat and level. The will be the bottom of the
mouse's tummy. Trim away the medium pompom until you have a shape of a mouse's head. Refer to photo.
The face will be almost a complete triangle.
Now that the face has the right shape, trim into the large pompom (body) just a little to even the edges
between the large and medium pompom.
Cut a double strand of embroidery thread (12 strands in total) and glue at the tip of the triangle (this will be
the mouse's whiskers). On top of the embroidery thread, glue your 3 teeny pompoms (glued together
previously) to create the nose.
Trim away 2 small white pompoms to a "V" shape. This will make the mouse ears. Glue the mouse
ears in place (refer to photo).
To make the eyes, I cut a little fluff from a teeny pink pompom and rolled the fluff between my fingers to pack
it together a little. Then, I glued the fluff for eyes. Be sure that the glue is applied to all of the fluff, or the
eyes will not stay in place. You can also use buttons or teeny wiggly eyes for this.
To make the tail, cut a very thin piece of craft foam (approximately 4 inches long) in an irregular line, creating
a little bit of a point at one end. Glue the end without the point onto the mouse body. Again, refer to photo
for placement.
