Materials used:

~ articulated doll “skeleton”, (mine came from a pose able cat tail buttplug) but you can find them here

~ crafting wire, I used two different thicknesses. (12g,24g)

~ sewing thread & needle

~ plastic wrap/saran wrap

~ duct tape

~ needle-nose pliers or anything to help bend the wire

~ white crafting felt

~ batting

~ fur fabric, we used a short pile fabric that was lying around

~ HOT GLUE GUN (my beloved)

ALRIGHT, HERE WE GO.

I didn’t take many initial pictures (sorry!)- but I used a 12g wire to wrap them around the skeleton for his arms and legs, and then on top of that thicker wire base I wrapped some 24g wire around to “strengthen” them.

I also made his toes from the thinner wire!

From here I cut strips of crafting felt, like the picture below. The thin strips made it easier to wrap and glue around the body.

From this point, my husband took over and bulked up the rest of his body with strips of batting (like quilting batting)

No photos of the paws/feet, but we wrapped embroidery thread around his feet to cover the wire- not too thick though so his feet remain articulated!

Here’s after he was wrapped in batting! Now onto patterning the fur out! We used the tried and true Saran Wrap and duct-tape method and it helped us make sure his legs weren’t super bulky.

The body was done in a similar fashion, but it was mostly just a tube of fur!

(Photo max hit 😭)

The last two photos are just my husband putting the eyes on and sewing him up! And Voila- Brush Buddy!!

I’m not sure how helpful this will be for folks, but this was mostly just a labour of love and ADHD hyperfixation + ignoring my chores lol.

If y’all have any questions or need clarification please do not hesitate to send me a message or an ask!
