I made paintbrushes out of elastics today! Here they are . .
.
It was so simple I whipped up six of them in about ten
minutes (the first one took almost half of that as I figured out the best way
to do it!) and the best part is that all of them together cost like a dollar to
make! I used elastics from the dollar store and pencils we had in the center
already. The instructions I found on line suggested using elastics that were
about the same size but the bag I got had a variety and I kinnda thought it
would be more interesting that way anyway. So, I just grabbed a bunch of
elastics and hung them over my finger so one end of each would all be together.
Then I wrapped a small elastic around that end until it was tight and jammed a
pencil in there. I think I am gonna remake them with sturdy sticks instead of
the pencils because I think it will look better and I am thinking at some point
I am gonna need all of those pencils back!
