The Steps
My littles came to mind when I thought of this craft. They started watching Bluey a while back and like the main characters, are siblings and close in age.
I’d never sat through a full episode, only catching a couple of minutes here and there. A few days back that happened again, this time the kiddos were outside playing, the toys were scattered on the living room floor, and the TV left on with Bluey playing.
I was about to turn it off and clean up when something caught my attention in the last few minutes of “Rug Island”- Bluey and Bingo were trying to teach their dad their make-believe game. No biggie right? NOPE. I was totally tuned in and teary-eyed at the end. If a 2-3 minute clip can do that, I’m sold lol
IF you have 3 different tint/shades of blue skip step 1
BLUEY
1. Mix your different blues if necessary
2. Paint your Bluey roll in the medium blue color, then set it aside.
BINGO
Cut a 1-inch slice into the bottom of 1 roll and tuck in the edge inside the roll.
BINGO
2. Mix your 3 shades of orange if necessary
3. Paint your Bingo roll (shorter roll)in the medium orange color, and set it aside.
CHLOE
Paint your Chloe roll in white, set it aside.
(Not shown) Once it dries, add black spots to the sides and lower end.
BLUEY & BINGO
Use the lightest colors to paint the tummy patches on Bluey/Bingo and use the darkest colors to paint the large patches around the eye area.
EARS
Fold over 1-inch of the heavyweight paper and draw 2 triangle ears and 1 rounded triangle shape (3 pairs total).
Cut out the ears, painting each set- Bluey (triangle, dark blue + tan), Bingo (triangle, dark orange + medium orange), and Chloe (rounded triangle, black dots)
FACE
Bluey- Paint 1 white oval over each dark blue patch, 2 light blue eyebrows, and 1-2 dark blue spots on the sides. Go back to the eyes, paint 2 black iris, and outline the whites. With the tan make a squarish snout, outline the snout in black, create a smile, and nose. Use the lightest blue to paint between the eyes, right up to the snout.
Bingo- 1 white oval over each dark orange patch, 2 light orange/tan eyebrows, and 1-2 dark orange spots on the sides. Go back to the eyes, paint 2 black iris, and outline the whites. With the light color make a squarish snout, outline the snout in dark orange, create a smile, and nose.
Chloe- Paint 2 black ovals near the top and 2 iris. Use the black to create eyebrows. Make a squarish snout, nose, and smile with black.
NAMES
Paint each of their names on their tummies: Bluey, Bingo, Chloe or how they’re often spelled: BLUEy, BInGO, CHLOe
ASSEMBLE
Lastly, glue on Bluey and Bingo’s ears to the top and Chloe’s ears on the side of her face.
That’s it!
My littles and their new “toys” = )
Happy crafting!
