Where can I find Etsy shop to buy puppets? I’m thinking that after 100 and some on 50 episodes of my podcast, I introduce a puppet but what kind of puppet? A Grover type puppet? A pink peanut Jeff Dunham type puppet? Oscar grouch your Kermit, the frog type puppet? Not really sure. I also thought of going and using one just on my second TH-cam channel which is a Christian testimony one and produce a puppet that preaches the word of God. Used to make my own puppet when I was a kid. I built my own Felt vulture that I called Volti. I cut and sewed. I stopped doing this around. I was 12 or 13. I thought up taking it up again after 30 some years? Plus what inspired me is not only Jeff Dunham, Nina, Conti, Terry Fator. I’m looking to create my own or buy a puppet, which I can use on a permanent basis and create a story around them. Also, some of the artists that I have interviewed are interested in being interviewed by a puppet and will come back to my podcast if they were interviewed by puppets, so it kind of inspired me.
I bought a Melissa & Doug puppet a few years ago, and it had stuffing in the head instead of a finger strap in the mouth. It works pretty well. I've started making my own puppets, and design them from the inside out. So it starts as a sock puppet for better control, and then I add a solid mouth plate. I use materials inside which makes it easy to slide my hand out without damaging the puppet due to friction. The rest of the puppet gets designed around that (foam head, body, rod arms, etc.) They still look home-made, because I'm new to puppet making, but each one is better than the last.
Hey Greg, this was an awesome video! I loved the detailed exploration of the different types of puppets and their features. Your passion for puppetry really shines through. I especially appreciated the tips you shared, they're going to be really helpful for anyone looking to get started with puppetry. Can't wait to see more of your content! I just subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to more exciting insights. Keep up the fantastic work! 😊
I don’t have it with me so I can’t say for sure but I’m guessing it’s an old Folkmanis puppet. They have a bee very similar. I would guess that puppet is 20-30 years old. Couldn’t find one anywhere on google that had the glove body so it way no longer be available.
Do you have any more tips for what kinds of puppets are best for if you plan on walking around and performing with them? And what’s the best way to do it? I’d love to hear your input
Hello Greg! I’m looking for a puppet or a Muppet like the Jeff Dunham type or Sesame Street type to use as a cohost on my podcast? And introduce the puppet as my cohost by interviewing me on my podcast. If you ever interviewed anybody on a podcast? We’d love it if we could interview you, but Perhaps you could interview me using your puppet or you could interview me as you and using your puppet so both of you so I don’t know what you think.
the tip about never taking the puppet off visibly is great. I felt a bit of hurt myself when you pulled it off.
Also, I think its the eyes!
Great instructions. That "gift box" puppet with moving mouth was well done. Thank you.
Etsy is also a good place to find (relatively) affordable puppets of higher quality than a toy store.

@@ONSTAGEMUSICPODCAST just type in “puppet” or “professional puppet” and you’ll get tons of results.
