How to Make an Easy Teddy Bear




1
Think of a design for your toy. It doesn't necessarily have to be a bear; it can be a tiger, a dog, even something like a crocodile (if you want a challenge).

2
Get some two pieces of fairly big pieces of felt. Draw a simple template of the teddy and then cut it out! Put the pieces of felt together when you cut so the size of the teddy is identical on either side.

3
Get a fabric marker and draw eyes, a nose, a mouth. etc. If you with a mission then

4
Sew some buttons on for eyes and nose or you could even cut out felt things to sew or glue on.

5
Get a needle and thread and sew the side of the teddy together. Remember to leave a space to put in the stuffing! 






6
Stuff your teddy! A teddy isn't a teddy without stuffing- that's why they are sometimes called 'Stuffed Animals'! Don't worry if you don't have proper stuffing, you can use anything; bits of material or even a pair of old socks!

7
Put the stuffing in and then sew up the gap.

8
Give your teddy a name. It could be anything- Bubblegum, Cookie, Pinky, Blue, Pebbles or a made up word.

9
Give your teddy lots of love. Sleep with it, make it clothes, make it a... den?

Wastewater reuse On-site wastewater reuse can reduce water use in both urban and rural households. At present, most homes use potable (drinkable) water for practically everything in the house and garden. We are literally flushing our drinking water down the toilet! The articles Reducing water demand, Rainwater and Outdoor water use also have information on reducing potable water use. Opportunities to reuse wastewater and regulation of its treatment vary according to where you live. Urban households typically have a connection to a centralised, or reticulated, sewage system, whereas rural households manage their wastewater on site. Check with your local council or state health authority for advice on the regulations in your area. Two types of wastewater are created in a home: greywater and blackwater. Greywater is wastewater from non-toilet plumbing fixtures such as showers, basins and taps. Blackwater is water that has been mixed with waste from the toilet. Because of th
