You will need:
- Large Pom Pom
- 4 Jumbo Pipecleaners
- Google Eyes
- Black Funky Foam
- Double Sided Tape
- PVA glue
Instructions:
- Pairing off the pipecleaners, twist one around the centre of another.
- Repeat this process with the pipecleaners until you have a star shape. These will form the tentacles for your octopus.
- Stick the google eyes to the pom pom, then cut out a small strip of funky foam and stick onto pom pom using PVA glue to make the mouth.
- Take a strip of double sided tape, place onto the bottom of your pom pom and stick it onto the centre of your wrapped pipecleaners.
- Finally, bend the octopus’ tentacles into shape.
