How to make a beautiful bee with EVA foam

Hi, everyone!!!


Beautiful are the days where spring blooms and fields are full of flowers, and how could we forget the best friends of flowers: the cute little bees. 




This time we will learn how to make a cute bee with EVA foam. This way, we can feel the spring inside our home all year long.

Materials:

  • EVA foam (baby blue, black and yellow)
  • 2 pom poms
  • 2 chenille stripes.
  • Scissors
  • Hot glue gun
  • White paper (to trace the templates)
  • Pencil
  • Permanent marker (black)
  • Fine-tipped paintbrush
  • Acrylic paint (white)
  • Pink blush

How to do it:

  • Let us first trace and cut the bee of our choice in the white paper. So we get our templates.

  • After this you need to trace and cut out the bee templates in the corresponding EVA foam color, as shown in the picture. Remember to cut 2 eyes and the mouth of the bee. 


  • Make the antennas with the 2 stripes of chenille, to achieve this you only need to screw the 2 stripes of chenille and then make the shape of each antenna with your fingers.
  • At the tip of each antenna you will paste a pompom
  • Now, let's put all the pieces of the bee together with hot glue.
  • You can add more detail adding a beautiful cheeks with pink blush, a cute nose and funny freckles!!!




Finally if you want your little bee to be more detailed  you can add some details with white acrylic paint, like I did.

And presto, we finished our bee! Ready to keep the spring all year long inside our home!

Thanks for reading my blog, and until next time!
