Always I wanted to make a switch sticker for the switch in the foyer, so I browsed some non-woven switch stickers on the Internet. I immediately fell in love with this cute lucky cat, so I decided to "copy" one myself. Although the graphic is not original, I still enjoy it. The joy of crafting!
Materials and tools needed to make DIY non-woven lucky cat switch stickers:
Non-woven fabric, tools required: scissors, needle and thread, water-erasable pen, cardboard, pencil, eraser, alcohol glue.
Non-woven lucky cat switch sticker handmade DIY steps and methods:
Step 1:
Find Take out the non-woven fabric corresponding to the color of the picture, and draw a circle with a diameter of about 24 cm with an erasable pen (I used my pot lid to draw it directly. You can use a compass to draw it on the cardboard first, and then draw it on the non-woven fabric with an erasable pen). The light yellow non-woven fabric is just what I use for lining. An extra layer will make it thicker, and I can sew the cat head and tail between the two pieces of fabric. After all, only a ring is left on the top layer
Step 2:
According to the size of the switch, dig out the switch position in the center of two pieces of yellow non-woven fabric. Pay attention to it being slightly smaller than the switch. This way, the switch can be firmly stuck without any other The glue is reinforced to avoid damaging the wall
Step 3:
Water Use a eraser pen to draw a circle and a square in the middle and then cut them out
Step 4:
Copper Plate Basically completed
Step 5:
First draw the cat’s head, tail, and paws with a pencil on the cardboard. I I really don’t have the art skills to draw directly on the non-woven fabric, so I used a stupid method to adjust the size on the paper first, and then put the outline on the non-woven fabric. Now that the outline is ready, I can determine the eyes, nose, and spots on the non-woven fabric.
Step 6:
Non-woven fabric Draw the cats head on it (you can use a double layer of cloth, so its thick). The next step is needlework. Find the color that corresponds to the original picture, and then sew it on. Of course you can use alcohol glue, but I don't have it. My principle is You can use thread without glue, haha. Meow’s eyes and beard are all sewn on with black thread. I think the most difficult part is the mouth. I cut out a small piece of red and then sewed the edges densely with small stitches. , so that it can be fixed well. I was so happy during the sewing process that I forgot to take pictures
Step 7:
Pink The pink cheeks will not look good with stitches, so just glue them with alcohol. The cat head is basically completed. By the way, the reason why the cat body is left so big is because I plan to sew the cat body into the copper plate in the end
Chapter Step 8:
Cat tail also needs to step on the outline first. Cut out two pieces of cat tail, and leave a little edge at the same time, because you need to sew the two pieces together in the end, then turn it over and put cotton inside to increase the three-dimensional effect. Before sewing, sew the brown spots on one piece first. , which in turn will be more perfect. Of course, it is not easy to turn over, so be patient and stuff some cotton at the end
Step 9:
The When the cat has paws, step on the cloth with a water-erasable pen, leave two pieces of cloth on each paw, sew, turn over, and finally stuff cotton. There are spots on one of the small paws. The method is the same as the tail
Step 10:
Continue When I got down, I felt the most crazy. These days of attracting wealth and making treasures.As for how to adjust the characters, I still used the old method. I first determined the size of the characters on the cardboard, and then used my drawing patience to constantly modify them, until I basically "copied" the original drawing. This process only took half a day. After the pattern is laid out, the next step is to stamp the characters and then cut them out. Because the characters are too small, you need to use scissors like that
It is more convenient to use small scissors for paper cuttingStep 11:
Each The components are all completed, and the next step is to assemble. The cat’s head and tail need to be sewn with thread to make them stronger, and the “luck and fortune” sign can be glued on with alcohol glue
Step 12:
Finally, glue the brown “copper plate core” in the middle of the copper plate with alcohol glue, and you’re done! I put it on the switch in the foyer as soon as I entered the door to "attract wealth" for me, haha
