Materials:
- Wooden cubes
- You can choose any size that fits your needs. Mine happen to be 2" cubes. I found these at Micheal's.
- Fabric
- I used two different types of felt and a cheesecloth.
- Glue
- I used a hot glue gun but most types of glue would work
- Scissors
Cut the fabric to fit around the cube shape. I found it easiest to cut out a cross pattern and then fit it to the cube one side at a time until its completely covered. Use caution if using the hot glue gun because glue will soak through the lighter fabrics and may potentially burn you. I used a spare piece of thicker fabric to help with pressing down the cheesecloth fabric to avoid touching the glue with my bare skin.
After making the cubes, I chose a box that I thought would be perfect for storing them, making this not only a sensory work but also an object permanence, open-close, and stacking work.
