Many colors, glitter, glow available online. Very inexpensive, soft and flexible, giving it a try… bead (which I now see is plastic painted metallic) Nylon thread - clear Underbody layer and Tail - Artiste metallic embroidery floss - Heaven body- Stitch Soak Scrub nylon looped yarn - Coconut milk with single strand of opal greenish toned tinsel laced into it. This nylon yarn comes in many colors. Locally sourced at Meijer and HL. feather hackle Grey Hen cape 3/8 organza ribbon stripped from each side, palmered up body with concentration of fibers at throat and underbody to simulate legs. Sally Hansen HAN I believe the Stitch Soak Scrub nylon looped yarn has really great possibilities, so I included a picture since once it was wrapped, the design of the product is hard to see. It could be used for posts too, I think. The bit of tinsel is still threaded in. It created noticeable and better depth with the tinsel.
