    2. Next, cut out the figure from the foam board.

    3. With acrylic paint, start outlining the fingers, hair, feet and legs (figure B).

    4. Use your imagination as you decorate the clothes, hair color, eye color and skin color with unique items such as felt, stickers, buttons, ribbons or fabric.
