You Need

  • white 16 oz. plastic cup
  • two 1.5 cm wiggle eyes (colored ones are fun)
  • one 1.5 cm pink plastic jewel
  • 12-inch chenille wire, cut in half
  • hot glue gun and hot glue sticks
  • black fine-point permanent marker
  • white and pink card stock
  • scissors
  • school glue stick

Directions

  • Squeeze a drop of hot glue onto the cup for the eye and place the back of the eye on the glue. Repeat for the second eye.
  • Twist the two pieces of chenille wire together at the center to create whiskers. Squeeze a drop of hot glue onto the cup one inch below the eyes where the nose will go. Press the center of the wires into the glue and hold for a few seconds until set.
  • Squeeze a drop of hot glue onto the twisted center of the wires. Press the pink jewel nose onto the glue.
  • Use the permanent marker to draw a mouth below the nose and whiskers.
  • Out of the white card stock cut two 1.5×5-inch ear shapes. Out of the pink card stock cut two 1×3-inch ear shapes. 
  • Use the school glue stick to glue a pink ear shape inside each white ear shape.
  • Use hot-glue to attach the ears to the cup just below the rim. Optional: curl the top of each ear around a finger.
