How do you make potter puppets?

Use tan colored felt and cut them out in the shape of a body, use scratch fabric or stuffing to stuff them and sew them shut. Once they're closed, used black fabric to make robes, brown/red to make hair, and any other accessories you may need. You can easily hot glue these on, or even use a felt marker to paint them on.

How do you make Potter Puppet Pals Puppets?

Each puppet took roughly about 10 hours to make. I designed each of the faces and hair by watching the various Puppet Pals videos many, many, many times, and tracing various screen shots.

Each puppet has at its core a wooden dowel with part of a popsicle stick glued on at the top to form a "t" shape. The top of the "t" is inside the head of the puppet. The top bar of the "t" allows the entire puppet to rotate properly when you twirl the rod. The "t" was inserted into the pre-sewn head through the bottom of the long neck tube then I stuffed it very firmly with poly stuffing wads poked in with a knitting needle. Then I sewed shut the bottom of the neck tube. The black robes were sewn separately, then sewn to the neck tube to complete the puppet. The robes are slightly longer than the dowel rod.

The puppets are made out of felt and the facial details are painted on with fabric paint. Voldemorts eyes were first painted red, and while the paint was still wet I sprinkled on red ultra fine poly glitter (then vacuumed up the excess after the fabric paint dried). I then outlined his eyes in black and added the black pupils. Harry's glasses were painted white, with opalescent poly glitter sprinkled on the wet paint. Voldemort's eyes look fantastic in the way they reflect the light. I am very fond of Voldemort-the-puppet. He has a great personality.

The Gryffindor badge on the puppets was something I found on the internet and I just scaled it appropriately and printed it out, cut it out, and glued it on to the robes.

Each puppet has a piece of white "loop" velcro sewed to each hand. This is so that they can "hold" props like wands (to make wands I bought el cheapo kids paint brushes and cut the handles off and wrapped the thicker end of the handle with black "hook" velcro such that it would stick to the loop velcro on the puppets' hands). The puppets also have a thin strip of elastic tacked on by the ends such that the elastic lies across the puppet's palm. A rod with a loop on an end of it can be hooked on to this elastic and then used to move the puppet's arm.

When did puppets start?

AnswerMost people who are Puppeteers will agree that puppetry's roots were formed in China as well as Bali/Indonesia. They were used as teaching tools in small family groups and were often manipulated (performed) by the older members of the family. Grandmother's and Grandfather's would share personal stories of their youth, bravery and honor in order to hand down the legends of their family history.

Puppets were not at all like we see today instead, they were crafted from animal hides to have the outline and shape of a person, animal or object. These were known as shadow puppets. They could be performed against a wall with tall moving shadows or, indoors with a bright lantern against the linens much like our movie screens today. Either way, was a treat for families and provided a special bonding time while being educational and traditional.

Today, we continue these teachings and entertainment forms though not nearly as personal as in your living room by your grandparents, instead they are still in your home but performed by professional Puppeteers.
