Why Puss in Boots, of course!
I made this Puss in Boots marionette for Shrek the Musical at the local community theater. I had been wanting to make a Cat puppet for the Babe for about a year now, and this was a good incentive. I don't like how the eyes turned out, so I may change them. I also want to experiment with adding stripes with different dyes or markers. The kids love playing with it regardless.
I made him a marionette for the play, but I prefer hand puppets, so he is a hand puppet, too! I just clipped his mouth shut on the inside. I'll probably snip the strings and keep him as a hand puppet.
He sure is a fun puppet.
