The body is a yellow plastic Easter egg that I painted white - this is just one layer - I used about 6 coats before it got to be white.
I then put it back together and glued a piece of cotton around the egg.

His face is made out of two pieces of felt that I hand stitched and stuffed with small scraps, then glued on two googly eyes and painted the nostrils with white fabric paint and the mouth with red fabric paint.

His legs are made from the caps off of pens (with the bottom part snapped or cut off) painted black and then glued to the cotton on the bottom so he stands up.
His tail is a piece of rolled up black felt glued to his bottom.
