  • This page is currently being migrated from Puppets in Melbourne. Please be patient whilst I move all the articles across.


  • Feel free to browse, view and use the following educational videos. Most are related to patterns and/or tutorials presented on this site, and where relevant, links to those items are given. School of Puppetry videos can be found on Youtube and BlogTV.

The video is an accompaniment to the Round Head Foam Puppet pattern [link to be added]. This is only a demonstration of the finished puppet. (PS. Yes, I know, I suck at performing! But then, I’m a builder not an performer!)

Different puppet types require different display/storage systems. A muppet-type puppet, sock or mouth puppet will require a stand - usually a vertical pole or piece of wood, housed in a heavy base. Some puppet makers even use microphone stands for their puppets! In this video, I show you how to make a stand for muppet-type puppets (or sock puppets). The video includes a list of materials and tools. The following will cost you about $15 in materials and take you less than 20 minutes to make.
