I love this time of year where everything seems to be alive and humming especially all the Bees buzzing around pollinating everything!
I couldn’t help but create this adorable little No Sew Bee it was just calling my name ! 😀❤️🐝.
Supplies you will need
• some material or a sock
• wire
• hot glue
• yellow and black paint
• Dixie Belle brown wax or brown paint
• poly stuffing
• scissors
I pulled my supplies together and started creating.
I already had a coffee dyed sock on hand from previous projects so I thought it would be perfect for this project!
It measures about 4” long.
Here’s what my bee body looks like.
I glued my body leaving a spot open so I could stuff it with the filler.
You just need a little stuffing.
After stuffing the body I glued the last opening spot shut.
I freehanded some wings and got a piece of flexible wire.
I shaped my wire like this .
I glued my wire and then layed the material over it.
This is how it will look you can do this step whichever way you want .
I found it was easier to lay a larger piece of material over the wire then trim it when I was done.
I went head and trimmed the access material on the other side .
Here’s my wings . I love the wire in it so I can form it which ever way I want.
I also tied a little piece of material around the middle.
I decided to tie a piece of twine around his neck to form the shape a little more .
I choose this color for my lighter stripes.
This is a better look at the color cinnamon I used . You can use any yellow shade you like .
This is what the cinnamon color looks like on my material along with the black stripes!
I got a piece of wire for his antennas.
I bent the wire and curled the ends with my needle nose pliers.
Look at those adorable antennas!
I also gave his body and wings a little grungy touch with my Dixie Belle Brown wax.
I used a little wire to create his stringer.
His little stringer looks perfect!
I glued this mini clothes pin on the back to be able to clip him anywhere I want to add a little happiness! 😀❤️🐝
Here he is !
So Darn Cute!
I Love how this No Sew adorable Bee came out !
He is super fun and quick to make ! ❤️
Just imagine how cute serval of these would look attached to your plants , on a garland or on a tier shelf, or filling a dough bowl !
