Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
All right so we have got out lady bug and now he has got a nice curly little tongue
here. And maybe he wants to go fishing with that tongue or he is getting a little hungry.
So we are going to put another little but on the end of that tongue. You are going to
want to grab a spare piece of your black felt and you are just going to start to cut a little
circle because we are going to put that right on the end of that tongue. And it doesn't
even have to be another bug, you can just call it a little tongue freckle if you want
to. And we are going to separate that. Sit that aside. Now you?re going to want to take
the underside of your tongue. This tongue is curling up this way so if I put it on the
end it's going to weight that end down, you?re not going to be able to see it. So I have
got them curled under and flipped over. And again you want to use a fabric glue, an epoxy
glue. I have been using my glue gun. And we are going to place a small dab on the very
underside of that tongue. And a little teeny piece of felt here and we are just going to
stick that right on there. And hold that down, its going to take a minute to glue. And you
just start pulling all those little excess hairs because felt has a tendency to shed.
Wrap his tongue back under there and now he has got a fly, or a tongue freckle on the
end of his tongue.
