Goldfish Making Directions
Step 1
Paint the golf ball orange – that will take at least two coats.
Step 2
Cut fins out of the orange foam. You will need two top fins, one bottom fin, two side fins and one tail fin.
Step 3
Cut lips out of the red craft foam. Use a fine permanent marker to draw the details on the lips.
Step 4
Drill a hole into the top of the golf ball, for the eye screw. Screw in the eye screw.
Step 5
Punch a hole into each of the top fins, making sure they line up.
Step 6
Glue on fins and tail.
Step 7
String the fishing line through the fins and eyescrew.
Step 8
Glue on google eyes.
Step 9
Use a permanent marker to draw on eyelashes.
Step 10
Use the puffy paint to paint the fins and cover up any glue or seams. Allow to dry.
That’s it!
