Take a walk in nature, pay attention and look for a stick that will look good in your wind chimes. <\/p>\n\n
We found our stick on one of the walks we usually take through the pine forest. <\/p>\n\n
Materials you will need: <\/p>\n\n
stick<\/li>
brown cotton yarn or any other<\/li>
wool<\/li>
paperboard<\/li>
animal template (you can download it below)<\/li>
beads to decorate<\/li>
googly eyes<\/li>
scissors<\/li>
glue<\/li><\/ul>\n\n
Tip: you can add something that makes noise to each animal, like a bell.<\/p>\n\n<\/figure>\n\n
Let’s build it: <\/h2>\n\n
Start by cutting out the sea animal templates. You can draw animals yourself to use as a template.<\/li>
Use the templates to draw the animals on the card and cut them out.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<\/figure>\n\n
Make minor cuts in the indicated places on the template with minor scratches. Later, it will be the place where you will pass the wool.<\/li>
Choose one of the sea animals where you will start. Next, cut two strands of wool, one of each color.<\/li>
Take a thread and place the end in one of the cuts on the card, leaving a little yarn so that you can tie a knot at the end.<\/li>
Pass the thread through the mold, through the cuts in the card. See the video below for how to do it.<\/li>
When the yarn runs out, tie a knot in the back with the starting end.<\/li>
Do the same with the other color yarn.<\/li>
Choose some eyes (googly eyes like we used), or you can design one to your liking.<\/li>
Repeat the same process for the other animals.<\/li>
Cut three portions of brown yarn.<\/li>
Take a portion, tie a knot in one of the animals, and place two beads. Watch the video to see how to do it.<\/li>
Repeat the same for the other animals.<\/li>
With the other end of the brown yarn, tie a knot on the stick, so it hangs later. Do the same for the other animals. Don’t forget to leave some space between them.<\/li>
Cut one last portion of a brown yarn that will hang your wind chimes. Attach each end of the string to the ends of the stick.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n
