Make a flock of sheep, all materials are provided, including: fully illustrated instruction sheet, Chenille stems (aka Pipe-cleaners) Natural wool tops, cord and a selection of fabulous beads to choose from. A wide eyed needle will also be available to thread the cord through the sheep.

 Learn to manipulate pipe cleaners to make a number of armatures ( the structure which is the underlying body of each sheep, just like a sculptor would do!). Then complete each sheep with genuine sheep's fleece using a wrapping technique. (No sharp needles involved)
​
To turn your flock into a vertical sheep & beads Garland, thread the sheep onto a cord along with some colourful beads to create a beautiful decoration to take home to decorate your room. Count the sheep at bed time; you see sheep can help you sleep!
