To make the Sugar Plum Fairy
Get started out by painting on the hair, shoes, and leotard of the Sugar Plum Fairy.
If you do not have a pom pom maker, then you can wrap the wool all over your fingers and make a person that way. It is just less difficult to do it with a pom pom maker. When you have wound all your wool and lower it, insert your peg into the center of the maker. That way when you wrap the previous piece of wool all around the center of the pom pom to safe it all in place, it will be tied to the peg doll. Secure it all with a glue gun.

Lay 5 normal sized craft sticks next to just about every other. Glue a further craft stick diagonally throughout them to retain them all in position.
Convert it in excess of and glue a tiny craft stick horizontally throughout the 5 to develop the brim of his hat. I would glue it somewhat beneath the 50 % way mark.

To make the nose, minimize the conclude off the rounded stop of a craft adhere. This may perhaps acquire a few tries, as the sticks are inclined to snap. Stick it onto your nutcrackers encounter.
To incorporate the ending touches, glue on a feather and gem to his hat, and include loop of ribbon to cling it up with.
Although this is fairly an in-depth craft, absolutely everyone obtained associated. Even BB desired to paint a Nutcracker and Sugar Plum Fairy.
