Materials
Blank card
Brown felt
Black or brown raffia for mane and tail
Scrap of leather or other material for saddle
Sellotape
Tracing paper
PVA glue
Small button or sequin for eye



Method
Horses are really hard to draw so if you can't draw one freehand the way you want it, try tracing one from a book using tracing paper.



Cut out the horse shape, then use your tracing paper template to cut out a horse shape from the brown felt.

Cut several lengths of raffia and snip each piece into several strands. Sellotape these on to the reverse side of your horse to make a mane and tail.
