DIY Tutorial: Make a Squishy in paper

If you like DIY (in French "do it yourself"), make a Spaper quishy can be a lot of fun. It won't be as perfect as Squishy bought on our Book, but it will necessarily make you satisfied and will also have the same anti-stress function when you press it.

Equipment:

  • Paper in different colors (but you can use white paper and colored markers according to your own designs) - You can also print and color patterns
  • Glue stick (for decorations)
  • Adhesive paper - Scotch transparent
  • Padding - Cotton or wadding from an old pillow for example
  • Scissors (Ask an adult for help in handling them)

Cut your decorations on another sheet of paper and paste them on your basic model, you can also draw directly on your pattern.

 

2. Cover your Squishy with adhesive paper to reinforce it:
