Who doesn't know colorful pipe cleaners? They are a must-have in every craft box. The fluffy chenille wire can be easily bent into shape even by children's hands, for example into animals (e.g., spiders for Halloween), flowers, figures, etc. The small hairs give the bendable wire its furry appearance, just like a caterpillar, hence the name from the French word "chenille," which means caterpillar.
