How to Make
- Take the white string/cord and cut into a few short pieces to use for the leek's roots.
- Cut a rectangle shape from white felt 12cms x 8cms.
- Place small strips of double sided tape along one side of the length, and another strip about half way along the width. Peel off the backing.
- Place the short pieces of string/cord onto the felt so that they are stuck to the double sided tape and are sticking out the end for the leek roots. Roll the felt into a tight sausage to make the body of the leek, making sure the roots are sticking out the bottom.
- Using scissors cut slits into the other end of the leek to around half way to create the leek tops.
- Using a light green felt tip pen, colour the middle just below the leek tops.
- Then using a dark green felt tip pen, colour the leek tops both sides, and blend into the light green colour as shown.
- Draw eyes and a mouth using a thin black pen. Add cheeks using a pink pen.
- Peel off the backing of a brooch pin and stick to the back of the leek. You can now attach the brooch to your clothes.
