Making a Swan from Netting and Coat Hanger

I just made one. My grandmother and I used to make them as kids and she is still alive and we sat down and figured out the pattern. It turned out so cute. I will take a photo and post it as soon as possiable.

-first cut and shape coat hanger as shown
-next wrap neck with gauze then with net I make mine thick
-cut your net 50 inches long and 4 inches wide, fold in thirds and take 1/2 of a thin pipe cleaner to tie it in the middle.
-fluff it up to look like a pom-pom, and start twisting them on.
-when you have enough on use orange felt for the beak, black fet for around the eyes and black beads for the eyes.

I have made a white one too and it is prettier. Any questions feel free to contact me.

Here is another angle on how to shape the coat hanger.

When I was 9 years old, I made a Swan in vacation bible school and gave it to my Grandma as an"I love you"gift. She made me feel like I was Picasso himself with my art work.
