Roll a round ball... then flatten for the chimp's face. Make the circle about the size of a nickle. |
 |
|
Roll a round ball of flesh... as you flatten this, turn to an oval shape. This will be the muzzle area of the chimp. |
 |
|
oll two small balls for the eyes and set in place. |
 |
|
Roll one small ball for the nose. Place it on the top area of the oval muzzle... right between the eyes. |
 |
|
Roll some flesh... make a flat oval. Cut off the ends as shown. These will be the ears to the chimp. |
 |
|
Carefully push the ears on the chimp's side of the face area. |
 |
|
with the dull pointed pencil (or stylist) press in holes in the eyes. |
 |
|
Use the dull pencil to push in two nostrils in the nose. |
 |
|
Use a toothpick to put a line for the mouth. |
 |
|
Use the side of the pencil to make two marks on the ears. |
 |
|
Take a piece of thin wire... bend over to make a U shape. Use scissors to cut. Press the wire into the top of the chimps head. If the wire happens to come off after baking... apply a drop of super glue and put the wire back in the holes. |
|
|
Bake in the oven ... 270 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes... watch so the ears don't burn. |
|
|
After is has baked... and cooled... cut a thin ribbon (long enough for your neck)... loop it through the wire U that you put in the chimp. Viola... a Chimpanzee Necklace! |
