Attach the eyes, nose, ears and then the eyelids. I didn't attach the bottom of the eyelids Then attach the scarf ends onto the top of each puppet.
While attaching my eyes, I took the yarn needle and a white yarn end and added a sparkle onto each of the eyes.
When attaching my eyelids, I only attached the curved top, not the bottom.
When attaching the tongue, attach the entire way around.
