- Set aside to let them dry completely.
- Next is the superhero’s cape. Grab your paper {or craft felt} and cut out a trapezoid shape to be placed on the back of your piece.
- At this point in time you should also cut out a small rectangle mask as well.
- Repeat for each piece you are making.
- Now go ahead and glue the pieces to the painted flat clothespin to complete your DIY superhero.
- At this point in time you should also glue on the wiggle eyes and draw on a smile with the marker.
- Once done, set aside to let it dry completely again.
- When your pieces are dry it’s time to play! If desired – you can also add other embellishments to give them that one-of-a-kind customized look.
Make it your own! You can easily turn these into “superwomen” by adding some felt hair, some crown embellishments or even some glitter glue for a fun look! You can also decorate the cape cutouts for an awesome look!
