How to Make
- Firstly, draw your tartan design onto a red paper bag using deco pens and a ruler.
- Then create 5 tubes from black card and double-sided tape. When you have made all 5 tubes, snip off the ends to make them different lengths.
- Make small 1cm length slits around the bottom of 4 of the tubes. Then fold all the tab’s inwards.
- Add detail to the tubes with silver tape.
- Stuff the inside of the bag with newspaper or tissue paper. Then stick the un-decorated tube inside the paper bag.
- Seal the opening of the bag around the tube by folding the corners and sticking them. Then punch 2 holes in the tube.
- Using super tacky glue, stick all 4 decorated tubes on top of the bag, alternatively you can use hot glue.
- Lastly, cut a length of wool and stick and tie it around the tubes.
Top Tip
To give more of a bagpipe appearance, flatten the corners of the paper bag to give rounded corners instead of pointed corners.
