Last week, my grandmother showed me this. I love the simplicity and the fact that it looks so cute! I'll tell you how to do it. When you're done, you can use it for sticking in things like postcards or photos.

Description

Last week, my grandmother showed me this. I love the simplicity and the fact that it looks so cute! I'll tell you how to do it. When you're done, you can use it for sticking in things like postcards or photos.

Instructions

  1. Small p6225601 1308747111

    Start with a book you don't want any more (or buy it for a few cents in a charity shop). It cannot have more than 100 pages, or the hedgehog will be too 'round'. It makes it easier when it's a paperback. Start with folding the pages in half. Then fold back the corners, as you can see on the picture.

  2. Small p6225602 1308747153

    Continue with all the pages in the book.

  3. Small p6225603 1308747196

    Until it looks like this. The papers sticking out, is the cover of the book.

  4. Small p6225604 1308747196

    Cut off the cover, the same size/shape as the folded pages.

    Stick on some eyes and a nose and he's ready! I used buttons on a paper-clip.
