  • Cut the milk bottle in half to create the body, with the handle forming Elmer’s trunk.
  • Take off the lid and cut off the ‘raised’ bit of the bottle.  Stick paper over the hole.
  • Cover the bottle in glue and layer on the tissue paper!
  • When Elmer is dry draw on his eye using a  felt tip!
