ROOAAARRR!! See how to make a lion mask, then try it with your kids on the weekend, by Riot Art & Craft.
You will need:
- Honeycomb Mesh
- Yellow Felt Sheet
- Deep Yellow Felt
- Orange Felt Sheet
- Black Felt Sheet
- Black Chenille Stems
- Mask Shape template
- Scissors
- Fabric Glue
- White Elastic
- Stapler
Step 1. Template
Line one of the mask shapes up to your plate, and trace the eyelids into the centre of the plate. You will be using both, so they will need to fit together once decorated.
Step 2. Lion’s mane
Cut your light yellow & orange felt into strips approx 2cm wide. Do the same with your gold honeycomb. Loop the felt over, and staple around the back of the mask shape in alternating colours. Once finished, take any single layer of the felt offcuts and your honeycomb and slot in front of the loops to create a bit of texture.
Step 3. Lions face
Once happy with the arrangement of the mane, glue deep yellow felt over the front of the mask, hiding any staples and trim to size. Take your mask shape, and glue onto the plate, so that the eyes match up.
Step 4. Details
Cut out a triangular nose, eyelids, and two circles to decorate the face. Add folded pipe cleaners for whiskers. Once you have the shape outline for the bottom of the plate, trim it along the circular felt to match.
