Supplies:
• You'll find frozen feeder mice at most pet shops that sell reptiles and other live animals. I use the size "Large Adult".

You can find most of the supplies at any Craft store, like Michaels.

• A little bit of Super Sculpey (If you don't want to buy the big box, any white or flesh-colored polymer clay will do.
• Two black beads 6/0 size E for the eyes
• A sewing needle, smallish
• White sewing thread
• White foam from the flower arrangement section of the craft store
• A coarse rasp
• Sand paper
• A little bit of Borax, from the detergent section of the supermarket
• An X-Acto knife, with a spare blade
• Tweezers
• Needle nose pliers
• Snips
• An acid brush, or soft toothbrush
• Wire (gauge 20 for the legs, 24 for the arms and neck, even thinner for the tail)
• Tiny bit of Polyester fill for the tail
• Flat piece of wood with two holes for the feet
