Cinco De Mayo Felt Burro/Donkey Finger Puppets DIY

May 3, 2012 by Linda Lanese

These Finger Puppets are so cute and I am sure they would add fun to Cinco De Mayo for children. Hide these cuties in a piñata or top silverware or pencils with them for holiday theme! Place a small dot of glue on front and back to hold trim in place before sewing. Use fabric paint for facial features. Add fringe or “fur” between ears to add a touch of whimsy. Find is tutorial on “Crack of Dawn Crafts” by the host Cheryl.  Thanks Cheryl for this darling tutorial.

Check out these other finger puppet articles we wrote or buy some finger puppets ready-made here.  Put on your very own origami finger puppet show! With this Origami Finger Puppets book by Muneji Fuchimoto.
