My SIL, Megan, started making these over a year ago and hers are DARLING!!! Last year I decided to make some for my kids and the ones I made were less than fantastic… in fact they looked an awful lot like quazimoto.
Last week at the craft store, Leah saw the little spools and begged me to make some again for her so I thought I would give it one last try. Usually you use spools with round balls that you glue as the head, but unfortunately the store was out of the right size spools, so I ended up getting these instead:
…then paint it.
You will have to check out Megans etsy store for the cutest ones ever! I don’t think she has any for sale at the moment, but if you beg long enough she might oblige…
