How to make quickly your own fake fur for your crafting animals with just some scraps;-D masking tape

couldn't got by my fake furr and thought then i make my own fur;-D
i found a n ice colour of knitting yarn, and some big masking tape roll,
and thought that will do;-D
I thought you like to know how you can make your own fur as well,
so here it comes;-D
when you want to make cloths of it, you can better use the sewing machine when you have wraped the yarn in the tape together stich it under the sewing machine and
sewing those strokes together with the zig zag stich.
but that is just an other option;-D

notes:
I used for my dog 60gram of knitting yarn , how much you will need it dependable of how big your animal is and how close you will glue the strokes together on the animal.
It costed me the whole fur for my dog 2 hours. but by a les bigger one it will cost you less.
Hope you like this tute;-D

and..... thank you very much of stopping by, till the next time;-D

Step 1
Take a long stroke of tape with the glue side up tape the both ends down on your working table.
Sie the picture.
Step 2
Wrap the yarn around your fingers so you becoming a spiral covering around them.
when you have a bundle cut the knitting yarn of.
slide it of your hand.
Step 3
Slide the bundle of your hand and lay it on the tape something less then the half of it.
Step 4
Make some more bundles and glue them all as well to the tape , so you will become something like this;-D
Step 5
Fold the empty other half of the tape down , like the picture is showing you.
Now you're almost done with your first fur strip.;-D
Step 6
Cut the lobs through so you cot real fur.
Now you're really done;-D yeaaaah congreatulations with your first strip of fur.LOL
Step 7
Glue the stip on your animal.
Because fur has like other fabric a direction , start on the back part beneath his bum and work so upwards to his head.
then you will become a natural look of your fur.
Step 8
The next strip you will glue it down above this just on the half like a roof with tiles.;-D
Step 9
On places where you can't glue a whole strip use only a bunch with glue on the top. You must do that later on too on place where you still can see the tape .
Step 10
to make your fur more natural you can use markers or parment sharpies.
When it's still wet you can fade it out a little on the rest of the fur.
when you don't have water ristables you can use later hair spray.
Step 11
when you're satisfied and you have covered up the whole body of your animal, you're done;-D
Hope you like this, it is really easy and quick to make and you don't need patience.
Just have fun, and be a crafty creative gril;-D
