Tutorial DIY
Como Hacer Squishies de Papel
Imprime una plantilla, colorea el diseno, cubre ambos lados con cinta, rellena poco a poco y sella la abertura final.
Color before cutting
Color while the paper is still flat. Large marker areas are easier to smooth before tape is added.
Laminate with clear tape
Cover both sides with overlapping strips of clear tape so the paper resists tearing and smudging.
Stuff lightly
Use small pieces of tissue, clean grocery bag, or soft scrap paper. Too much stuffing makes seams pop.
Seal and test the squeeze
Close the final opening, press each seam flat, then squeeze gently and patch any air leaks.
