Two Christmases ago I crafted this little vampire/evil banana skin for my boyfriend. We had had a conversation about creating a game around killer banana skins that latch onto people's faces and, well, kill them! So I decided to make him this friend to remember that idea by.
He is made of three parts of yellow felt, lined cream in the inside and stitched with bold brown cotton thread. I have also inserted wire in between the layers of felt so that the skin can splay out or be arranged into a position! I must admit, a killer banana would be a great addition to any Halloween party! They can be positioned anywhere in the house, on a banister to greet guests or on top of a cupboard to surprise your housemates!
Inside the banana skin in green and purple felt 'slime', as this is the banana's secret weapon! And I must admit, I think the googly eyes really set off his koo-koo look! And yet serve to make him slightly loveable...
Once my MA is completed, I'm hoping to make a few of these terror banana skins specifically for Halloween! Including some new pals for a whole army of them...
