This is the little guy I made for my father for his birthday a week ago. He just loved little Moe. I'm so happy with the way they turned out I'm already working on another bear and cupcake.

MOE AND HIS CUPCAKE BOX
•Moe is needle felted from Ashford dyed wool
•Five way thread jointed
•Wire in his hands and legs for gentle posing
•Black glass eyes
•Waxed nose
•Lightly weighted with steel shot
The cupcake box is hand sculpted from paper clay painted and
sealed, with a vintage jello mold bottom and hand made
glass cherry on top.

Hi Kerrilyn I used card stock paper for his little hat. It also has an elastic strap like a real party hat so it can be removed. For the steel shot I put it in a pouch and carefully felt around it. Its time consuming you have to be real careful you don't break your needle but I like my pieces to have a little weight to them. My pieces are also very firmly felted so you can not feel the steel shot.
