Easy Nativity Finger Puppets

I think nativity finger puppets are darling and wanted to make a set of my own. When I saw felt nativity stickers at Hobby Lobby I knew they would be perfect for making finger puppets. The size was just right and the set was on sale for two dollars. I purchased a few sheets of felt on sale and found a pattern for the puppet backing. I sewed the puppet backs together using my sewing machine. I made a few reinforcing stitches on each puppet. The nativity figures have an adhesive on the backs, but it is not strong enough hold up to the test of time.

I made a pouch from a felt rectangle to hold the finger puppets.

Supplies Needed:

1 sheet of navy blue felt

2 sheets of tan felt

1 sheet of brown felt

1 Square of Red felt for the pouch

Thread and Needle

1 snap

The project was easy and cost under $4.00 for all of the supplies. Eventually I would like to add a shepherd and possibly a few animals. I think the puppets will be a wonderful way to teach my toddler the Christmas story.
