Now I'll show you how to place the tail, the ears and the eyes. Take the pipe cleaner and
find something to wrap it around. I'm using a drinking straw. You can use a skewer or
a pencil, and just sort of wrap it around like that, probably like three times is good,
to get a nice squiggle of our tail. And then we'll trim it off so you have about an inch
left over here. And turn your puppet over and we'll put a dab of glue on the back like
this, going straight across, from the center across, and place that on there. And there's
our tail. You can move that wherever you want it. Next we're going to add the eyes and you
want to place the eyes up here by the cheeks, a little bit just over the cheeks. Just place
those googlie eyes right on there. Use plenty of glue for the googlie eyes and don't worry
if a little of the glue shows outside of them because it will, when it dries it will dry
clear. Now we're going to, with our permanent markers, we'll just add a little bit of decoration
here. We're going to make his nostrils on his snout with a pink color. You can just
kind of just outline those cheeks, just give it a little bit more color. You could also
cut the cheeks out of a darker pink and if you want, you can give him a little bit of
a mouth. Now let's check our ears and see if they're dry. If they're holding together
like this, then they're ready to glue on. And first we're just going to snip off a little
bit, just to flatten off the bottom of the ears. Just snip off a little bit of the curve
on the bottom. And add some glue just above the eyes like that and place your piggy ears
sort of on an angle like that. And all we need to do is wait for our little piggy to
dry and then we can play with him.
