You are a mean mean woman. But no. Thats not gonna work. LOL I'm buying from Mellissa's fabric stash. Thats enough for me for now.....LOL My mom has already told me to start in my office packing up for our move in 3 months. She said I shouldn't sew anything. Yeah right.

I was wondering what kind of glue works best for attaching the wooden head,fleece hair and felt hat to the pipecleaners and each other?

Wool hair just seems to fall right off. I have been using silk flowers upside down for bendies hats but if I put this over wool hair it is so easy to pull off.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks! Jennifer

I have the same problem with wool hair. I almost never use wool for hair because it makes me crazy. Instead I use pearle cotton (sold right by the embroidery floss in a twisted hank...it's thicker than floss) because it sticks well and comes in good hair colors. I use thick tacky glue.

Thanks for the tip on the hair. I just did my marmaid's hair with this cotton. It looks ok, I hope the glue dries well cause there is alot on it!

Now I am working on a 4" pirate for my son. Just got the armature done, need to do the clothes next.

and i want to get some silver and gold floss. that just makes everything so neat looking!

Those are BEAUTIFUL!

I just started making bendies about a week ago so I am no expert, but so far I like to use hot glue to glue the bead to the pipe cleaner and white glue for the hair and hats.
