By Denise Witmer, About.com

Materials Needed:

  • One bright green pipe cleaner
  • Two googly eyes
  • One pencil
  • One silk leaf off of an old flower
  • Hot glue gun/glue sticks
  • Flat back pin
  • Tag

Directions:

  1. Wind the pipe cleaner around the pencil tightly, starting at the pencil's point, then slip off. Then thin end is his tail.
  2. Glue the eyes onto the thicker end.
  3. Glue Hermie on the silk leaf.
  4. Hot glue flat back pin on back.
  5. Add the tag to the pin.

Added Tips:

  1. All SWAPS that are going to be traded should have a tag with some information about the giver. First name, troop level and number, and state works well as a rememberence for the receiver and keeps safety issues in mind.
