5. A skewer stick will be our mast, to which I will glue the sail made of eva rubber.
6. The flag It will be decorated ribbon, glue it as in the photo and cut it into a beak shape at the end.

2. I will start by gluing the ears to the face and also the hair.

5. Next I will glue the neck and the hands to the shirt and all this to the head.

6. We continue to decorate the face. I will paste the eyes mobile phones and I will give you details like eyelashes, nose and mouth with markers. Also a little color on the cheeks with eyeshadow and a cotton swab.

7. With a permanent blue marker I am going to do the typical stripes of a sailor and I'm also going to put a piece of blue pipe cleaner around his neck.

8. It only remains to place it on your boat and decorate the sail as you like, I have used two music notes.

We make other decorative elements

SUN

1. Cut out a circle that will be the face of the sun and some orange and yellow triangles to form the rays.

3. Glue the following pieces together like the balcony, the light, and the lighthouse dome.
4. Make the marker pen details of the balcony and the flame with markers.

THE LITTLE FISHES

1. Draw the silhouette of a very simple fish in various colored foam rubber and cut it out.
2. Then, with a marker, make the details such as the tail, the body and the fins.

2. Cut out three strips of approximately 6 cm wide and 60 cm long in various shades of blue and makes peaks imitating the waves of the sea.
3. Glue the waves alternating colors and to finish the background add the sand of the sea with light brown eva rubber.
4. Add the other elements to form this work: the sailor with the boat, the sun, the clouds, the rock and the lighthouse, the fish ...
5. To brighten the sea I have made bubbles with silver glitter eva rubber and I have distributed them all over the surface.
6. I will continue with the crab, some shells and I am going to make the name "Alberto" with letters of Eva rubber because it is a gift.
7. To give it the fine touch I'm going to make some little birds with a black marker.
