Mr. Bones

9 milk jugs later, I finished my pin!!

Isn't he super cute?  I had no real pattern to go off of, just a picture, so I did the best I could.  And of course I saved the cut outs and extras to make more!




Pin It


A super cute model!!


A close up of the feet, modeled after my own!  Those were probably one of the more tricky things to cut out.


Arms and hands, again, modeled after my own.


Pelvis.  Took some tricky thinking to attach it to the other milk jug.


Here's a close up of my wizardry.  Cut a slit in the bottom jug and forced it into the top.  Then punched holes in both and tied with embroidery floss.

 Shoulder blades.  Again a little tricky to figure out how to attach those suckers.


Head attachment.



 And the beautiful head cut out with an exacto knife.

 Most of the joints were attached like this.



And one final shot with model.  He took me about a month to make, including collecting the jugs, and being lazy, and then cutting most of him out in one day.

The next step is to paint him with our glow paint!!
