Pipe cleaners dwarfs tutorial

These cute little dwarfs take only a few moments to make.  Here is my tutorial

You need pipe cleaners red and green (Or any other color of your choice),
a wooden bead, a piece of red felt fabric for the hat.


Cut two 5 cms (2 inches) long red pieces and one 3.5 cms long green piece.
fold the two red ones in half and join them as you see in the photo.  Place the green
piece between the upper fold and twist the red halves tightly together.



You can make them smaller by cutting away a few millimeters from the legs and arms.



Now you can now start pushing the twisted part through the wooden bead. Push until you
reach a neck size.  You can always cut away what is protruding and cover it with the hat.






Cut the hat from the piece of felt and glue it on. That's all!  You can always add a beard if you like.




While I was not looking, the cute little punks invaded my plants.

I wish you all a pleasant evening and blessings.
