Instructions

    • 1
      Choose colorful pieces of fabric to encourage play.

      Lay one piece of cotton fabric on a flat surface or the floor.

    • 2

      Cut four squares from the cellophane wrap.

    • 3

      Layer the cellophane squares so that edges overlap one another. This will create more of a crinkle sound. Avoid placing the cellophane near the edge of the material, instead place it approximately 3/4" away from where the hot glue will be used.

    • 4

      Lay the second piece of cotton fabric on top of the cellophane so the cellophane is in the middle, like a sandwich. Place glue on all the edges. Press edges together carefully, with a towel. Now you have the crinkly part of the sack finished.

    • 5

      Turn a pillow case inside out. Glue the crinkly part, completed in above step, to one side of the pillowcase. There is no need to glue small portions at a time. Let glue dry completely.

    • 6

      Turn pillow case right side out. Entice your ferret to play by placing food, treats, or a favored toy, inside the new sack.
