How Do You Make A Pipe Cleaner Person?
You can turn ordinary pipe cleaners into interesting shapes like animals and people. Make people in different sizes, and you will soon have a whole pipe cleaner family. Pipe cleaner people are easy enough for children to make. Buy a bag of multi-colored 12-inch pipe cleaners. Choose a color for the arms and head. Choose another color for the upper body and a third color for the lower body. Cut one 12-inch pipe cleaner in half so you are left with two 6-inch pieces. Twirl a piece around a pencil so you end up with a small coil like a head. Put it aside. Cut the other 6-inch piece in half. Fold the end of one piece into a tiny loop. This becomes the hand on the end of the arm. Repeat with the other 6-inch piece. Set the arms aside. Make an upper body from one of the long pipe cleaners by bending it into a hollow T-formation that looks like a t-shirt. Twirl the ends together to close the shirt at the top. Use a long blue pipe cleaner to make the pants or legs. Cut the pipe cleaner in half
