PUPPET: Grey Body, Red Mouth

STYLE: Muppet / Sillman Design*

MATERIALS: The body construction is from 1/2" foam.  The body is made from grey fleece while the mouth is a red felt.

SIZE: About 16 Inches Tall with the Mouth Closed (Regular Size Puppet)

FEATURES: Basic body and head.  Comes with unattached hands and two already sewn arms.  Arms do not have stuffing in them so you have the option of adding whatever you want before attaching (if you would rather I add the arms and hands myself I am happy to do so.  Just let me know at the time of purchase).

NOTES: Want to design your own puppet but don't know how to construct one?  This is perfect for your needs!  This already constructed "blank" puppet is waiting for your personal touch.  You will receive it as is, with no eyes, mouth, etc., so you can completely customize it however you like.  Arms and hands are not attached in case you want to do something different with them.  Comes with a giant Ziploc storage bag to help keep the puppet clean.

BUT I WANT YOU TO MAKE IT: What?  You would rather I make it?  Well, that's an option!  If you like a particular DIY puppet but want me to make it into something you, simply e-mail me what you had in mind.  If I can make it (and find the supplies), I'll let you know.  The next step is to put the DIY puppet in your cart.  Then add the "Complete DIY Puppet Service" listing (which is an additional $75 cost).  Purchase both items and I'll make your custom puppet, sending you updates for approval before finalizing any details.  You can find that listing by clicking here.

SHIPPING:  Please note the following on shipping: for completed puppets I usually have items shipped within 1-2 days.  For 'blanks', same deal if you just want the blank, but if you want me to add the features expect to add a few days depending on what you want done.  On complete from scratch custom orders, it depends on what you are having me build but most regular size puppets take me 3-5 days, with larger ones taking longer.

I will ship internationally but please be aware that due to my work schedule it might be up to a week while I rearrange my schedule to make it to the post office.  But I will do my best to minimize any delays.

I DO combine on shipping and do my best to get it as close to actual costs as I can.  If shipping ends up being cheaper than quoted I'll refund the difference.

*What's a Sillman Design?  No, it isn't some special Puppetry slang or term used in the industry.  It's actually just what I call this particular design of puppet.  When I design puppets, I make templates to re-use for future ones.  One template can make dozens or even hundreds of different types of puppets!  After making a puppet for my dad, he named it "Sillman", after a member of his clown club.  I liked the idea, so to honor the members of the Kansas City Clowns I started naming certain puppet designs after different members of the club.  That's all it is!  ^__^
