• 2 small googly eyes
• Scrap of black felt
• Small brown pom pom
• White paint
• Toothpick
• Hot glue gun
• Scissors

How to make Wookiee Finger Puppets

Cut a strip of felt the length of your finger and the width of two of your fingertips.

Run some glue along the edges of the felt and fold in half to create the initial puppet. Use scissors to cut long triangles in the bottom of the puppet.

Cut a small oval from black felt and glue to the center of the puppet. Glue a brown pom-pom directly above the black oval.

Glue googly eyes above the pom pom. Cut two eyebrows from blown felt and glue in place. Use a toothpick dipped in white paint to add teeth to the black oval.

Now you can put on your Wookiee Finger Puppets and play! Aren’t they cute? They’re sort of like mini felt versions of my Chewbacca Craft from a Paint Stir Stick!

If you’re throwing a Star Wars themed birthday party, these Wookiee finger puppets would make the perfect little addition to the goodie bags (you can make these super easy Jedi Party Favor Bags!) Don’t forget about my Jedi Water Bottle Covers for a star wars party as well.
