Deer Hand Puppet ~ 1 of 6 photos - a photo on Flickriver

Deer puppet made from recycled common household materials, and Makedo connectors.

Makedo had asked if I would love to create with their product, and I gladly said yes! I have no financial gains from promoting company or products. My inner child has been having a lot of fun with this construction "toy."

Materials used-- Recycled:

- 1 64 oz orange juice carton
- 2 aqua color drink straws
- 3 empty paper towel rolls
(one was cut in half for the neck, the 2 other rolls were cut in half for the legs)
- 1 wooden popsicle stick to stabilize the head better

Other Materials and Tools used:

- Fiskars micro tip scissors (for the tail details)
- regular sturdy scissors for the box cutting
- craft knife for the slits the ears fit into
- clear packing tape for added stability to some joints and cuts
- staple and staplers to connect the legs to the body
- Makedo clips, hinge and connectors (the teal blue and black thingys)
