Three Little Octopi!

By Mandi • September 10, 2008

Aren’t they CUTE???????

I think I might make the bows on the bright pink and purple ones’ heads a little smaller, but other than that, I’m so happy with how they turned out! Super, super easy project, which is how I was able to get them done so fast, and I’m debating making little miniature versions for our Operation Christmas Child boxes.

SUPER CUTE! Great job! My uncle made these for my sister and I when we were young and we loved them! I don’t know what you used for the head (styrofoam?) but he used tennis balls and that made them a ton of fun because we had them bouncing off the floor, the walls, each other’s heads(A)… LOL! But you did great!

Oh!!! What a great idea tennis balls would have been. I actually saw that somewhere, but I figured they were more expensive and didn’t realize there was a benefit of using them, or I would have totally done that!BR/BR/Thanks, though…now that you’ve got me all depressed over not using tennis balls. Kidding!
