How to Make
- Download the template provided and cut out two large hearts and four small hearts from self-adhesive foam in your chosen colour.
- Take two pipe cleaners and cut six pieces to approx. 7cm in length each. Bend two of the pipe cleaner pieces into a curve to create the arms. Take the next two and bend the ends into a right angle to create the legs. Keep the last two pipe cleaners straight.
- Remove the backing from one of the large hearts then stick all six pipe cleaner pieces in place. Take the other large heart, remove the backing and stick-on top to secure the pieces in place.
- Remove the backing from the four small hearts and stick these to the top of each antenna.
- Cut a piece of magnetic tape to size and then stick this to the centre of the large heart.
- Turn the heart magnet over and stick down two wiggle eyes then draw on a mouth using a thin black pen.
Top Tip
To make sure all the pipe cleaner pieces are stuck in place securely, stick a second heart to the back to hold the components together.
