Paper Dragonfly Craft: Adding Antennas

Video Transcript

"Now that our body and our head are in place and taped down really well, we're ready to attach the pipe cleaner antennas. I like to use pipe cleaners, but if you don't have them in the house, you can also use foil. I'm going to show you how we do this. We could use either like the shiny, glittery one, or we can use a plain pipe cleaner. And what we're going to do is we're going to cut an incision in the top of the head by just pinching and giving it just a little bit of an opening so that we can feed it through. And then what we're going to do is we're just going to go inside the loop and press through that opening and pull through, and then do it the same way on the other side. Then what we can do is we can curve these antennas around and give them more of an antenna kind of feel. If you're doing this with foil, you can do that too. Take a strip of foil and wrap it up. You want to start with something long and then maybe trim it down, squeeze it down. And then treat it just like a pipe cleaner and feed it through."
