I came across this adorable craft on Spoonful.com and thought I would share it here. What a fun and easy way to make your own Mickey and Minnie Ears for your next park visit.

Fashioned from stiff felt, these distinctive headbands can be whipped up in no time flat.
What you’ll need
- Mickey and Minnie Ears Template
- Scissors
- Stiff black felt
- 2 black headbands
- Hot glue gun
- Polka-dotted ribbon
How to make it
- Print and cut out the template. Then use it to cut two black felt earpieces for each headband.
- Hot glue the center portion of one of the earpieces to the underside of a headband (about 1 1/2 inches left of the headband center). Then hot glue the rounded ends of the earpiece together, matching up all the edges. Attach the second earpiece in the same way, spacing it 3 inches from the first one.
- To complete Minnie’s headband, use the ribbon to tie a big bow around the band between the ears.
I love this idea and can see a lot of personalization possibilities! What additions would you make to create your own ears?
TTFN,
