How To Make Cute Yarn Wrapped Love Monsters
Step 1: Using a pencil draw a love monster silhouette on the cardboard and cut it out using scissors.
Step 2: Make half-inch deep slits along the border of the cardboard love monster cutout.
Step 3: Take yarn in the colour of your choice and wrap it around the love monster. We used two colours of yarn – pink and green.
Step 4: Cut out two small circles from white craft paper to make the eyes of the love monster. Using a black sharpie fill in the eye balls. Glue the eyes on the yarn wrapped love monster.
Step 5: Next, cut out a semi-circle shape from white paper to make the mouth of your love monster craft. Fill in a small red semi-circle to make back of the mouth and fill in the remaining with black colour. Glue it on the love monster craft below the eyes.
Step 6: Cut out a small heart from red craft paper to make the tongue of love monster’s craft and glue it on the mouth.
Step 7: Take pink craft paper and cut out two antennae for the love monster.
Step 8: Cut out two small hearts from pink craft paper and two even smaller hearts from green construction paper. Glue the green hearts on the pink hearts and paste the pink hearts on the ends of the antennae.
Step 9: Take black craft paper to make the hands of the love monster. Draw the hands using a pencil and cut them out.
Step 10: Paste the hands on the sides of the love monster craft making sure to glue only on the sides of the elbow, keeping the hands free.
Step 11: Lastly, cut out a big red heart, slide it under the hands and glue it on the belly of the monster.
