1. 

   

   First you need two colours of felt . For the inner & outer part of the ears .
   
   If possible make sure your felt is of the thicker kind . ( the white one I had was so thin , it didn't look good ) .

2. 

   

   & a hairband to match the colour of the outer part of the ear .




3. 

   

   First , fold the outer part of ear (felt) into half & cut out the cat ears .
   
   This way you get two pieces .
   
   You will need 4 .
   
   

4. 

   

   The measurement I used was 6 centimeters by 6 centimeters .
   
   When you cut it , make sure the sides of the ears are slightly curved .




5. 

   

   Then place it onto the felt to make it easier to cut out the other side of the ear .

6. 

   

   You will have something like this .

7. 

   

   Then you need to cut the inner part of the ear .
   
   Mine was 3 centimeters by 3 centimeters .

8. 

   

   Place it in the center like that .
   
   & glue it as such .

9. 

   

   Don't throw away the extra felt . Cut out a small piece & roll it like such .
   
   & glue it so it'll stick together .

10. 

    

    Ok , so each ear has two pieces of felt ( as show in picture ) .
    
    Use on piece & put glue along the lines that are red .
    
    The middle one is where you still the rolled up piece ( as shown in picture above ) .

11. 

    

    Then paste the outer piece of the felt onto the back one with glue .

12. 

    

    So the inside part of it , looks like this .

13. 

    

    Then place glue along the red lined part .
    
    & stick it together .

14. 

    

    If your lazy to sit there holding it , use a clothes peg or some sort of clip to help you .
    
    I rather use my hands , so it won't end up too pointed ( look at my black cat ears below ) .

15. 

    

    Then since the bottom parts of the ears are open , put glue then stick onto hairband .
    
    ( I always paste where the bristle-y part starts & ends )

16. 

    

    Then cut out another piece of felt .
    
    It's 2 centimeters by 6 centimeters .

17. 

    

    Use it to cover the botton part of the ear , make sure the lenght is correct .

18. 

    

    & voila! Cat ears :D
