Pipecleaner dolls
Materials
4–5 yellow fuzzy pipe cleaners
2 orange fuzzy pipe cleaners
2 small googly eyes or beads
Scissors
Glue
Step 1 – Make the body
Take 2 yellow pipe cleaners.
Twist them together loosely.
Wrap them around 2–3 fingers to make a round/oval body.
Twist the ends together at the back.
Fluff the fibers so the body looks thick and soft.
Step 2 – Make the head
Take 1 yellow pipe cleaner.
Wrap it around 2 fingers several times to form a small ball.
Twist the ends together underneath.
Attach the head to the top of the body by twisting the loose yellow ends around the body.
Step 3 – Make the wings
For each wing:
Take ½ yellow pipe cleaner.
Fold it into a small elongated loop.
Twist the middle so it holds its shape.
Fluff it out.
Twist one end onto each side of the body.
Bend the wings slightly downward, like the wings in your photo.
Step 4 – Make the beak
Cut about 5–6 cm of orange pipe cleaner.
Fold it in half.
Pinch the folded end into a small triangle/point.
Twist the two ends together.
Attach it to the front of the head.
Add a tiny drop of glue if necessary.
Step 5 – Make the feet
Make two orange feet.
For each foot:
Take about 8–10 cm of orange pipe cleaner.
Bend the middle upward slightly to form the leg.
Spread the two ends forward to make little toes.
Twist/bend the pipe cleaner until it looks like a three-toed foot.
Attach the leg underneath the body.
Repeat for the other foot.
Step 6 – Add the eyes
Glue two googly eyes onto the head, slightly above the beak.
Step 7 – Shape our chicken
Finally:
Make the head round.
Make the body slightly wider than the head.
Pull the wings outward.
Bend the feet forward so the chicken can stand.

How to make it
1. Make the head and ears
Take one red pipe cleaner and make a small rounded loop for the head. Twist the ends together at the bottom. Shape two small loops at the top into bear ears.
2. Make the body
Take another red pipe cleaner and wind it around your finger or a pencil to form a short, thick coil. Fluff it out and attach it underneath the head
3. Add the arms
Cut or use one pipe cleaner for both arms. Bend it into a shallow U shape, then twist its middle around the body. Bend the two ends upward and round them to form the paws.
4. Add the legs
Use another red pipe cleaner. Make two short rounded loops at the bottom of the body for the legs/feet. Twist the centre into the lower body.
5. Make the muzzle
Take a small piece of red pipe cleaner and roll it into a little fluffy ball. Attach it to the front of the face.
6. Add the eyes and nose
Glue two black beads onto the face for the eyes and one black bead onto the muzzle for the nose.
7. Make the yellow bow
Take a yellow pipe cleaner and:
Fold it into two loops.
Twist the centre together.
Leave two long ends hanging down.
Wrap the centre around the teddy's neck.
8. Shape your teddy
Gently bend the ears, arms and feet until it looks like the teddy as shown in image.
