How To Make This Easy Fox Craft
1. Begin by cutting out a large heart from the orange craft foam.
To make an even heart, we cut our foam in half and cut half the heart out, so when opened we had a symmetrical heart.
2. Cut out a second heart, this time using the yellow craft foam.
Make this heart about 2/3 of the size of your original orange heart.
3. Cut the second smaller heart in half.
These pieces will be the cheeks of the fox.
Turn them upside down as shown and glue them into place securely.
4. You can now create additional facial features, such as a circle for the nose, and four various triangles for the ears.
You can also cut out a small flower or bow for the fox’s ears like we did.
5. Assemble the face of the fox by gluing the circle nose into place.
Add a dab of glue to the ears and layer them as shown before gluing them to the back of the fox head.
6. Add a dab of glue to the back of each googly eye.
Press each piece to the face and allow them to dry.
7. Finish by adding a foam bow or flower to the ear of the fox.
Your foam fox is now ready to be displayed.
