I loved your website. I think it is a great ministry. Keep up the good work!

Sometimes the seller kringletoys on ebay has puppet blanks. They don't have any up now, but about twice a month they offer them. They are made from fleece. Good luck finding some.

I have never puppeteered with a carved foam head. Are they harder to use than a hollow 1/2" foam head? (cemented together foam pieces) I would think they would be stiff. Is it a cramped space, or is that something you would just dig out larger? Just curious, I try to make my puppets as...

I was using blanket fleece and sweatshirt fleece. They have a nice stretch, but the fabric pills so now I try only to use anti-pill fleece. Felt is so hard to work with. I would try anything with a really good stretch before I would use felt. There is a fabric that I call robe velour. It is...

For blacklight fleece/ fabric http://www2.mailordercentral.com/oneway/ 60" x 1 yard for $15.00. My 19" puppets use 1 1/2 yards of fabric, but I could probably squeeze a smaller puppet from a yard. I haven't worked with this fabric, but it is the only blacklight fabric I have found after an...

Ergonomics and comfort come for me first. I can't very well puppeteer if my hand cramps up, or the puppet is too heavy to use for a long time. A very important thing for me is that the mouth closes all the way. I make sure there is nothing to bind it up. (fabric, etc) I used to just score...

Hi, You spelled professional wrong (on ebay) with the rat puppet. It should be one F. It make take some searchers awhile to find it. Ebay will let you change it. Great looking rat by the way! I love the "chunk" out of his ear.

Thanks for the info everyone. Here is the link for ebay. $28.50 a yard including shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11741&item=5954590699&tc=photo

Does anyone know if Hampshire Mills is going to be the company producing this fabric? Is the fleece all gone now? I'd hate to pay $22 plus shipping a yard on ebay. Yikes!

I think everyone is different. I ordered plans for a pvc puppet stage from www.puppets-etc.com. It is a little stiff for me to fold, but I also bought my pvc pieces from home depot instead of from them. Maybe their joints fit together better. We used a denim curtain, but next time I would...

Hi, They use practice foam golf balls, cut in half. You can find them in the sports department at walmart. The ones I found are yellow.
