This cat-shaped pendant is a very original way to decorate any part of a bag or to carry it as a keychain. It is made with felt fabric, lots of pompoms and beads so they can give that special, cat-like touch. It is creative and easy to do, you just have to follow the steps that we indicate below or follow the tutorial in the video that we have prepared.
The materials that I have used are:
- A piece of thin cardboard
- Black felt fabric
- Textured brown pompoms that look like a tiger
- Small black beads and some silver
- A brown decorative ribbon that is transparent
- Cold silicone or some similar glue that sticks well
- Pencil
- Rubber
- Scissors
You can see this craft step by step in the following video:
First step:
On a piece of thin cardboard we draw a cat drawing with the help of a pencil. We cut out the figure and we are going to transfer it to the felt fabric to make the same drawings.
Second step:
We place the cardboard on top of the fabric and trace its edges with the help of a white wax paint. We are going to draw two figures of cloth cats. We will place a fabric on top and another below, leaving the cardboard in the middle.
Third step:
We cut out the fabrics and we are going to glue them together with the cardboard. In this way we will have a fairly compact figure. When everything is glued, we cut the edges in search of imperfections and finish it off.
Fourth step:
On the cat's back we put silicone glue and we are placing the pompoms. They have to be close together and tight. With the help of a hole punch we will make a hole in the top of the cat's head. Later we will put a pendant on it.
Fifth step:
We also put the silicone on the cat's head and we put the beads. They have to look good together and united, with skill and patience it will be achieved. We let dry until they are well glued.
Step Six:
We make a bow with our ribbon and stick it on the cat's tail. We will also place our metal pendant . With these small details that we were missing, we will have our pendant ready.
