We made the shield using a sheet of cardboard which we cut into a circle and covered in brown felt. We added glitter vinyl iron-on to make the circles on the cross and attached a handle at the back with spare cardboard. Our axe was made in a similar way; using cardboard to form the axe and covering it in felt and glitter iron-on vinyl. Use a length of wooden dowel, covered in sot batting and a felt cover to make the handle.
