Make a Mad Eye Moody Mad Eye

Step 5 Layout the main components

As you can see I used a watch strap. The watch I had was an old one where a fat piece of strap went under the watch and was secured to main strap by two short bolt like screws. I'm going to use most of the strap.

You might not have the same stuff, so all you need to be aware of is that you need something softish next to your skin, and the eye assembly and the sraps need to be attached to something.

Even if you are using a long strap that is big enough to go round your head (say a handbag strap or belt) it can't all be in one piece because Moody's Mad Eye has straps that go off at different angles.

Knowing that and what you have to hand I'm sure you can work something out. Other things you could use are:

For the strap:
handbag strap, belt, dark neck tie, elastic from a pair of shorts, fabric, strip of leather from an old leather coat etc etc

Anyway, whatever you have lay it out so that the straps go off at an angle as if it were a clock at between 10 and 5 to 3 o'clock. and draw round the straps and the lid with a permanent marker. draw the lid curve on the ends of the straps too. (BTW, I cut off the watch buckle and did not use it)

For the eye assembly backing:
piece of felt, piece of thick fabric, piece of foam from a washing up sponge, piece of leather handbag etc etc.
