I took a large paper clip and slid it down the length of the cable, then slid one end into the hole where the elastic attaches to the mask. I used needle nose pliers to make a kind of cage for the cable. I then just bent the rest of the paper clip onto the mask to hold itself in place. Another McDonald's toy that came with a Pinocchio card dispenser and three fact cards that when put together, had a picture of Pinocchio. After reading the article about the engineering student who made her own Growing Pinocchio Nose, and watching the costume maker's video, I had a good starting point. Next I glued the largest nose piece to the mask portion, and again allow to dry. I went over the outside and inside of the seem with an additional layer of glue. Our trusted advisor, Nicholas from the Library, recommended this type of glue for this seem. It worked very well but as he warned us, we were careful not to hold or pull on the nose once it was glued. Instead we always held the cheek portion to pull it on and off the actor's face.

Next we added the wig cap over the actors hair. The wig cap also went over the cable on the actor's head. We pinned the cable through the wig cap to really hold the cable in place. One other time the hot glue affixing the cable inside the tip of the nose finally failed, and the nested nose pieces were sliding in and out of the the mask. They didn't fall out, due to the nesting design, but as Pinocchio did choreography, it slid in and out several times. We re-glued it for the next performance and it worked fine again. Tips And Recommendations In Hindsight Stress and Fulfillment: It was cool and fun to make this, but also, at times frustrating and hard. I enjoyed brainstorming the different design aspects.

His excitement primarily stemmed from his dreams to become a real boy, which seemed to drive his entire personality. Overtime he got over this, becoming content with being a puppet. Although sometimes he would remain insecure over the idea of him not being "real."
