First, print out the provided template onto card stock. Cut out the faces and use a regular hole punch to make the eye holes. Then glue the face to a Mini White Favor Pail. If you have a cutting machine, like I do, cut the panda face out in black vinyl and the ears out in black card stock. Adhere the vinyl face to the pail using transfer paper.
