Ever bought Kinder Joy eggs? These egg shaped containers have soft chocolate candy in one side and a little toy in the other. I've always wanted to use the toy side of the egg in a craft project. And finally I had the perfect idea: the Child in his pod. I started by cutting one egg half and gluing the cut piece to another half.
Then I painted the pod grey.
I needle felted the Child. It was my first attempt at needle felting, so I failed to take any progress photos (my bad). Honestly, needle felting seems to be a make-it-up-as-you-go-along sort of craft. Here's my completed figure.
Then I glued him into his pod and added garland to make it more festive. He hangs nicely on our tree.
