Make Your Helm in 3 Easy Steps

 I think I mentioned that we have  a lot of swords around the house, but we were lacking in helms.  These were made from construction paper:

1. Tape two sheets together at the short ends, and then at the other short ends (so you have a circle).

2.Place on a head so you can mark where the eye slits and so forth should go. Remove it from the head, and then cut out the parts you want.

3. Tape a third piece of construction  paper to the top of the helm (taping on the inside) and cut it around to fit the shape of the top.

As you can see, you can make your helm closed, like Oob's or open, like Zorg's.  Zorg designed his based on an actual helm.  

If you want to get extra fancy, you can try a movable visor by using those round paper fasteners and a fourth piece of construction paper.  I fold the paper in quarters and cut it to shape (so that it unfolds into a sort of oval) and then cut slits in it (the folding gives you even slits and a symmetrical shape).
