Marionette

You can make it with 100-yen shop materials! [How to Make a Marionette] ★ Paper Cup Craft — How to make a Marionette
Marionette

Let’s try making a marionette you can control with strings.

For this idea, you’ll use items like a paper cup, a toilet paper roll, straws, a ping-pong ball, a plastic bottle cap, and disposable chopsticks.

First, make the marionette’s head with the paper cup and the body with the toilet paper roll.

For the arms and legs, thread twine through short pieces of straw, attach a ping-pong ball for each hand and a plastic bottle cap for each foot, then fix them to the body.

Cross two chopsticks to make a T-shaped control, secure them, and hang four strings from it: attach two to the head and the remaining two to the hands.

Marionettes are meant to be operated and played with, but if you’re an adult, displaying it as a decoration is also recommended.
