How Do You Make Felt Finger Puppets?
Small children love puppets of all sorts. You can make these cute felt finger puppets and let children use their imaginations to play with them. Step 1 Making felt finger puppets is fun. First, you need to cut out two pieces of felt that are the same shape into a semi-oval shape. Make sure the semi-oval shape will fit over a child’s finger. Step 2 Next, you will need to sew the two pieces of felt together around the curve of the semi-circle. Keep the stitches close together. Do not sew the bottom of the felt pieces, as this is where the child will insert his finger into the puppet. Step 3 Once you have the puppet sewn together, turn it inside out. This way you will not see the seams of the thread. Step 4 Add details to your puppet by using felt to cut out eyes, a nose, a mouth, buttons and other details. Use strands of yarn for hair. Add these parts using tacky glue or a hot-glue gun, as regular glue will not work well to hold the pieces together.
