One thing I always like to do is to make my kid’s lives fun and enjoyable. Whether they are at school or at home, I think that there is always room for a little creativity and fun. These Mini Troll Pencil Toppers are super cute and super easy to make. They make schoolwork and homework just a little more fun. Plus, making these toppers together is a great way to spend quality time.

How to Make Mini Troll Pencil Toppers
Step 1:
Let’s start with the poppy pencil topper. Print out the template patterns for Poppy and cut them out nicely. Trace the patterns on the appropriate colored felts and cut them out using scissors.
Step 2:
Take the hair and headband parts of Poppy; arrange them correctly and prepare needle with thread.
Step 3:
Stitch the round cutouts on the strip cutout of the headband; meanwhile stitching the hair part along with them. I did cross-stitched to attach the parts.
Step 4:
Take the head and the nose cutouts. Stitch the nose on the head part. Use a black marker to trace the lips and then use black thread to stitch it.
Step 5:
Grab all the cutouts now. Place the hair cutout on the top side of the head cutout. This will be the front side of the Poppy pencil topper.
Step 6:
Now place the front part on the top of the topper base, making sure that all sides are matched nicely. Prepare needle and thread. Keep the bottom side of the felt patterns unstitched and start stitching from the side.
Step 7:
Continue to stitch and stop after reaching the other side. The bottom side should remain open for inserting the pencil. Done stitching? Tie a knot and cut off extra thread.
Step 8:
Attach googly eyes using fabric glue or craft glue. Allow the glue to dry. Once the glue dries the topper will be ready to be used.
