This sweet bat finds place on a branch. It hangs through its legs of pipe cleaners. The bat makes it out of a black painted toilet roll. The wings consist of clay paper and equipped with two wobble eyes the bat is already finished. This adventure is also suitable for craft beginners.
Makes the bat for example as decoration for the next Halloween party, for carnival, children's birthday party or for the summer party in the garden. On lukewarm summer evenings fly often bats. Watch children these, this stimulates the children to craft. Have fun!

First put a toilet roll on an old newspaper and start painting it with black water paint.
With water paints the painting works best and fastest. Just make sure not to use too much water, otherwise the cardboard roll will not be dark enough!
Paints the complete roll covering with black color.
Then put the roll upright for drying.
While the roll dries, you make the wings.
For this you fold a black clay paper half. Then you paint half a wing on the clay paper. The middle of the wing is at the paper falcon.
The middle of the wings should be slightly wider.
Here the paper is folded. To cut, you fold the paper together again.
Now cut out the wings (folded together).
Then the wings fall apart.
Now you stick the dried cardboard roll in the middle of the wings. Make sure that the upper wing tips do not protrude beyond the cardboard roll edge.
After that, two wobble eyes stick to the upper part of the cardboard roll.
Now you put the bat on your head!
With the punched pliers you now punch two holes in the back of the cardboard roll. Here you later thread the legs of the bat.
Cuts now two legs out of pipe cleaner with each 6 cm length.
Then you put a pipe cleaner through each hole and twist the wire at the end. Thus the legs are attached to the cardboard roll.
Turns the bat on the head and bends the ends of the pipe cleaner at least 1.5 cm.
So you can hang your bat.
Have fun doing crafts!
If you want to use a template to paint the wings, print it out or use it as a coloring template.
