COVID 19 locked us in our homes with nothing much to do. While I was thinking to pick up with my hobbies, which during "Hostel Time" is difficult to pursue, I saw this contest and desired to to make this Duck. This as a bonus will also be used as decorative of my house.

So Let's start..

Supplies

I used:

1) Golden craft wires 0.5 mm diameter

2) A Clear Tape roll, A Toilet paper roll and A Straw (any material of same diameter will work)

3) Super Glue/Fabric Glue

4) Craft stocking Red and Yellow

5) Cotton

6) Scissors

7) Thread

8) Cotton

9) A Pair of Googly eyes

1) Take straw and roll the wire along its length. This is to give it spiral/zig-zag pattern. Do not roll it too closely.

2) Remove the straw and now roll this zig-zg wire along the circumference of a clear tape roll, to make a loop.

3) Close the loop. Make 10 to 15 such loops of different sizes.

4) Now. take stockings and put it over a wire loop as we wear socks. Close the loop by tying it with thread.
