Torso Bead

Torso Beads

Measuring 1 3/4" high (with a vertical hole running through the middle) and 1" shoulder to shoulder, the torso is perfect for a lot of interesting projects. The clay is soft enough that you can edit the shape with a sanding block to fit your application. All torso come with eye pins at the arms and at the top of the legs to attach limbs.

Fabulous Marionette Kit:Marrionette Kit
Beta Version

Starting with a polymer clay torso bead and a creative mind, make a fully functional marionette that you can dress in costume, add extra features and then put on a show!

The Modern Marionette Kit. Not for the faint at heart, and definitely recommended for those who like to experiment with materials and even stray from the directions with confidence.

This project was quite a challenge to engineer so that it could be "kit ready". We have alternate versions in the works, creating a smoother, lower profile arm design, adding eye pins on torso for attaching clothing, offering painted face beads for the head plus offering several types of string and paddles. NOTE: Thin white cording is included in the kit for puppet controls. Ribbon pictured here is for visual reference only.

Contents:
  • 4 oval beads for legs
  • 1 polymer clay torso with eye pins at shoulders and bottom
  • Large link chain for arms
  • Varigated eyelash yarn for arm filler
  • Bead caps, headpins, eye pins to create jointed legs
  • Wire to complete body
  • Head Bead
  • 3 Wooden control bars (holes drilled) and white cording to make your marionette move!

Your marionette does not come with any costumes. A simple tunic can be made by cutting a 4" strip of fabric, creating a hole in the center, and then simply tying the tunic closed with ribbon. If you have problems with an item, or need more pins, caps, whatever please contact us. We will be happy to assist you with this cool new kit.

Tools you will need: Round nose pliers, needle nose pliers, wire cutters, super glue.

Versions

We offer this kit in several "versions", and will be offering a deluxe version with tunic fabric, paintable face, handbag and shoe charms.

Marionette kit as shown: $25
4 torsos with complete marionette kit, all materials and instructions to make 4 (a $100 value) $50
