This cat has all its charm and is created as a craft made to be liked on Halloween. Its materials are practically made with cardboard, but we will have to add some others such as pens and a pipe cleaner to make the mustache. Following its steps you will see that it is very easy to do and you can hang it wherever you want.
The materials that I have used are:
- black cardboard two sheets of A4.
- thin cardboard of A4 sizes.
- light green construction paper (a small piece)
- yellow construction paper (a small piece)
- white construction paper (a small piece)
- two white pipe cleaners
- black feathers
- a piece of satin ribbon to hang the figure (in my case it is orange)
- cold silicone
- compass
- scissors
- pencil
- black marker
You can see this craft step by step in the following video:
First step:
We take the black cardboard and place it with the thin cardboard. We draw a circle approximately of 20 cm and another 15 cm inside. We cut it into a hoop. We glue both pieces with the silicone.
Second step:
We make the head of the cat and draw with a compass an 8 cm circle, then we cut it out. We cut the two ears of the cat in a triangular shape and on a piece of green cardboard we draw one of the eyes and we cut it out. We make the other eye using the other eye that we have made as a template.
Third step:
On the black cardboard We draw two circles of 5 cm in diameter and then cut them out. With these circles we are going to make the legs of the cat. We take the white cardboard and place the cat's paws on top. Around you we will draw nails, then we will leave a little margin at the top to cut out all that piece and glue it to the circle made for the leg.
Fourth step:
We cut two smaller triangles to place them inside the ear. We glue all the pieces on the head. To make the pupils of the eyes we will paint them with black marker.
Fifth step:
We draw the cat's mouth on a piece of white cardboard and stick it on the face. We take the pipe cleaner and cut it into 6 pieces to glue them as a mustache. Also we will cut out an oval yellow circle to make the cat's nose. We glue all the pieces, both the head and the legs in the circle. We glue all the feathers around the hoop.
Step Six:
On another piece of black card we draw the cat's tail by hand. It will be about 20cm long with an electric tail look. We cut it out and glue it to the body of the cat.
Seventh step:
We cut out a piece of satin ribbon and we stick it behind the body. With this tape we can hang the cat wherever we want.
