We temporarily interrupt bead rolling for this
quick and simple little project.
See, I have a little bit of ADD / ADHD /
tired-of-doing-the-same-thing-itis, and
I simply have to get up and do something else...
Supplies:
Laundry detergent cap
Rice or beans (*for bottom weight)
A hand full of cotton balls
Felt
Rubber Band
Hot glue gun
Scissors
Lace, rick rack, ribbon, etc.
Pompom or Button (for topping)
To Simplify, HERE is the video I found,
but it's not rocket science, just fun stuff...
Fill the cap 2/3 up with weight;
Top with a handful of cotton balls;
Grab a piece of felt and "dome" it over the cotton;
Wrap a rubber band around the cap top at the ridges to hold in place;
Glue the felt in place;
*Remove the rubber band
Add your lace, rick rack, etc.
Top with pompom, botton, etc.
TADA
*Note #1 the video does not use anything
for weight - I added that in my description
*Note #2 the video does not remove their
rubber band; history has taught me that
they will eventually dry out and break;
therefore I hot glued my felt to the cap,
only using the rubber band to help hold
everything in place, then I removed it.
Have Fun, Y'all!

ReplyDeleteThanks Stasa, I've got three other colors to "play" with ;-)

ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm always looking for my pins and needles, so after I make a few of these, I'll have no excuse to say I can't find them ;-)
