Basic robot

It is actually not that difficult to craft a robot. All you need are a head, body, hands and legs – like a human body!

To make one, I find it easier to use the mouth of a square cup container or square cookie cutter to help me shape the body and head. Of course you can cut it free-hand with a pair of sharp scissors or knife but people who know me can tell you that I can’t cut or draw straight lines even with a ruler!

Anyway back to the pictorial.

Step 1

Using a slice of ham or bread or whatever you like, cut out 2 squares and 4 long rectagles (for the legs and arms).



Step 2

Used bits of sliced carrots or you can use cheese or other types of cold cuts etc, cut out the hands and neck.





Step 3

Using craft punchers, cut out the eyes mouth and other decorative patterns for your robot.




Step 4

Assemble the robot together on your bread, rice or noodles.
