When I started looking into CE Marking I was overwhelmed by the amount of information - most of which I didn't understand. It's taken a few weeks of to-ing and fro-ing and letting the information sink into my brain.
Hi, So its been a while since I made a blog post, but now that I'm finished with re-decorating and some new baby knitting and the big difficult jigsaw that took up the whole table, I can finally get on with my next project! This project has been inspired by our plans to go to a Wales vs Fiji rugby match in October, so I am trying to make a dragon hat to wear on the day of the game. To begin with I did some research on Pinterest just looking at different dragons and their styles and looks. Click the button below to visit my Pinterest dragon board. And then tonight I started the build. I started with the easiest bit, the tail. As you can see the dragon body is an ice cream tub, and the tail is made from curtain wire, cardboard, marionette thread, a bit of foam for the pointy tail end and hot glue to stick it all together. Click on the button below to see a video of the tail in action. That's all for tonight, I'll do a bit more blogging on the build of the dragon hat as I go along.
Cheerio for now! Keep reading to see how I made a Piece and Jam Puppet. (American translation: Jelly Sandwich) I got inspired when I found the bread looking fabric. What else would I make but a piece and jam?
I just finished making this puppet with a recycled pringles tube, some wool, and a few other bits and pieces I had hanging around. See how I put this puppet together below.
