Golf Ball Lion Video Tutorial
Golf Ball Lion Directions
1. Drill a hole into the golf ball and screw in the eyescrew.
2. Put it on a wire, to hang it, which makes it easier to paint. Paint it yellow. It will take 1-2 coats to cover the writing. Allow it to dry.
3. Cut a circle out of the felt and cut an inner circle. I show you how in the video above. Don’t worry if it is not perfectly round.
4. Glue it onto the golf ball, like a mane.
5. Cut smaller pieces of felt and glue into place. I did alternating colors because I thought it would be fun! Now, trim the mane to the shape you want.
6. Cut fringes into the mane to give it a more realistic look (I use the term realistic very loosely).
7. With a permanent marker, draw the nose and mouth.
8. Glue on googly eyes and eyebrows.
9. Draw on whiskers if you want.
