The cheeky chickens are on the loose and up to mischief. Easy to make - with a big effect: liven up your spring decorations with our VBS craft set or give the little feathered creatures as a gift and spread good cheer.

In addition to the materials included in the set, all you need are sharp scissors, some hot glue, craft glue and, if necessary, craft colours and brushes - and you're ready to go!

1. If you like it colourful and want to create your chickens with the cheerful dotted pattern, start by painting circles in different sizes on the bags.

TIP: To prevent the paint from bleeding through to the other side, cut a piece of cardboard or paper and put it inside the bag before painting.

2. While the paint is drying, transfer the patterns to the felt and cut out all the pieces. Glue the small beads (Rocailles) onto the white circles with a dot of craft glue - this will allow them to dry thoroughly before the finished eyes are processed later.

3. Fill the bags with excelsior, close them with the drawstring and then roll them back and forth in your hands until they have the desired shape.

4. A seam is visible at the bottom of the bags. Pierce the wire legs here. This is best done between two sewing stitches. Now apply some hot glue to these stitches to fix the legs in height and position.

5. Finally, glue on all the felt pieces. The easiest and quickest way to do this is with hot glue. Place all the parts of the face and the comb on the head. For the tail feathers, put a dab of hot glue on the back of the chicken. Let it cool a little, then place the cut-out felt part on top and press it together a little with your thumb and index finger to create a more plastic effect.

Have fun making the chicken!
