"Now that your Luke Skywalker has some limbs, let's get started on details like boots and things like that. So the first thing I'm going to do is make his black gloves and his black boots. So I would pull out two black pipe cleaners and this is a technique that I use for gloves and boots. So watch closely at your children. You fold both of them in half like this and then cut right there so I'm going to have four equal pieces. Then you fold down the four equal pieces to right about the same length; exact does not really have to be that exact. You cut all along the middle so know you have all his little boots and things. So we fold this down to get the right size don't be afraid to make your loop a little bit bigger or taller it does not really matter. We would just simple roll around until it is covered. So we would just push this down and roll this around and you have his little gloves. Now let's get started on the boots. Now this is pretty much the same as the arms but exact the end you would make some feet. So you would roll this around and then when you think when you are just about at the end you pinch a little bit on the end and then you got a little foot. Now let's do this for the other side. You roll around and then you put it like this and that is his boots and his gloves. Now let's try this; see the thing that I like about this bag is that it comes with thinner pieces. Don't be worried if you don't have a thin white; it does not really matter. So we get two white thin ones like this and use this to make his pilot vest. So we would just wrap it around his vest, just keep going until it is right about his arms. Then you would cover one side and pinch it over his arm and now we would do the other side so that it looks complete. Just keep rolling it around and then make his shoulders. Go around the other side if you want to make it a little bit thicker. It all depends on the artist view and here we go now Luke has vest, his boots, and his gloves. Now let's get started on smaller detail like his hair and then I'll show you how to do the cool stuff like Light Saber. "
