Uncle Sam Pin Instructions:

1.Cut out a small basic rectangle for the hat (about 2 inches tall and 1 inch wide) from white craft foam.

2. Use a red permanent marker to draw red vertical stripes on the hat.

3. Cut a very small rectangle (about ¼’ X 1 ½”). Color this small rectangle with a blue permanent marker for the brim of the hat. Hot glue it to the bottom of the red and white rectangle.

4. Hot glue the hat to the handle of a wooden craft spoon (You may have to cut the handle of the spoon shorter so the hat totally covers the spoon).

5. Hot glue on goggle eyes.

6. Separate cotton so you get enough cotton to glue onto the face for the beard and eye brows. Glue both beard and eye brows in place.

7.Use the permanent black marker to draw a nose.

8. Attach a pin back with hot glue. (Sold at many craft and bead stores).

There you go. Your Uncle Sam pin is ready to wear. Give some as gifts, but make sure to keep one for yourself!
