How to Make an Animal Pen With Pipe Cleaners
- 1). Cut a 4-inch, a 9-inch and a 6-inch length of pipe cleaner. These will form the legs, arms and tail of a monkey shape for your pen.
- 2). Bend the 4-inch length in half for the legs and turn the ends up for feet. Curve the 9-inch length into a scroll shape for the arms and turn the ends up for hands.
- 3). Glue the legs where they bend in the middle and the center of the arms to a pom pom. Glue another pom pom on top, sandwiching the pipe cleaners between the pom poms. Glue another pom pom on top of the first two for the head.
- 4). Glue two eyes on the head and a small pom pom for a nose. Glue the 6-inch length of pipe cleaner to the back of the monkey for a tail. Let all the glue dry.
- 5). Wind the tail around your pen so that the monkey is hanging on the end. Leave enough room so you can hold the pen and write with it comfortably.
