Last year we had shared instructions on how to make a Washcloth Bunny with just a few simple materials. It's adorable ears and cute bunny nose were a big hit and we had several curious crafters seeking the 'how to' instructions (found here).
Now, it's time to share the instructions for another adorable washcloth animal. This time the instructions are for a cute little teddy bear! With only four items, this teddy bear can be made quickly without glue or tape! In fact, we actually sell the kits on our store so that you can get everything needed to make a Washcloth Teddy Bear! Grab one kit or buy multiple kits for the whole family.
If you purchased the kit, you will already have the materials to make these Washcloth Teddy Bears. If not, you will need to find one square light-weight, preferably soft, washcloth and three small rubber bands. The type of rubber bands I use are the hair ties for kids (affiliate link). These rubber bands usually have a nice stretch and they are durable. However, any rubber bands on hand should work, just make sure they will fit the thickness of your washcloth. The thicker the washcloth the bigger the rubber bands will need to be.
Once you have gathered the materials, use the instructions below to create your very own washcloth teddy bear! At the end of the instructions there is a sheet you can download and print, this way you will always have the instructions on hand whenever you need them.
Enjoy!
Materials
- 1 Washcloth
- 3 rubber band
Directions
- Lay the washcloth on a flat surface, color side facing down
- Roll opposite sides towards the center to form two equal tubes
- Grab the center of the two tubes and twist so that half of the washcloth is facing backwards
- Fold down the top half leaving a small amount of the bottom half showing
- To make the head grab the folded towel 2/3 of the way up and wrap it with a rubber band 3 times. Take the corners and wrap them with a rubber band, to make the ears.
- Roll the arms open a little to get them along the side. The bear is now done!
