Guest Post- Teddy and shirt tutorial

Updated: Dec 28, 2015 By Hani

Hello,

I am Cath from Cake By Cath

Today I am sharing my teddy bear tutorial with the readers of Craftionary

Knead some gum paste to soften it. When it is soft enough to mold tint it using a cocktail stick with brown food color and knead again. Now it is ready. Cut and set aside a small quantity for hands and legs.

Once the body is ready, we need to dress the teddy. For the clothes I tinted gum paste with blue color. Roll the gum paste into sausage and cut to make the legs of the teddy bear.
Now using the tool shown in the picture make a cone shaped model. This creates the opening of the pants.

Now make feet by shaping them as shown in the picture with the gum paste we set aside first. Poke small holes to make toes

Brush some Tylo glue and stick the pants and feet in place. You can make tylo glue at home following this recipe.

Now lets complete the teddy bear with the T-shirt finally.
Roll white gum paste very thin and cut into a rectangular shape using knife. Make two slits. Small slit for the collar and a longer one for the shirt’s end and shape as shown.
Now glue it in place using Tylo glue, do not bend much and use more glue to stick the back.

Glue the hands to the body. Add details on the shirt. We are almost done

Thanks Cath what a lovely tutorial
