Toon Clips

I just tried my hand at making a few 'TOON CLIPS' as I call them. They're cute, aren't they? I have been utilising my creative juices for the past couple of days; making greeting cards to sell at a fundraising event for the poor children in Kolkata. I would totally buy these clips if they were on sale. Just 10 bucks a pair. Adorable! Here's how you make them.

           You'll need:
           *mount board
           *store-bought metal hair clips
           *sketch pens
           *superglue      
*small safety scissors

 

Procedure:
Take small pieces (2 cm square) of mount board and draw your favourite cartoon face on it (Tom, Jerry, Derp, Simpsons, Stewey, Spongebob...let your imagination run free). Then color it with the sketch pens. Make sure its bright and eye-catching. Cut out the faces with the scissors. Keep in mind, you have to make the same cartoon face twice, for a pair of clips...so try to make them as identical as possible. Finally, to assemble the clips; put a generous blob of superglue on the flat part of the clip, and stick the mount board cartoon face on it. Let it dry for 2 minutes. Voila! Your TOON CLIPS are ready. Its quite inexpensive and easy to make, and looks uber-cute. It would be a fun art project for little girls too. Have fun!
