Dance. Play. Twirl. Repeat.
With what you ask?? Why a Twirling Ribbon, of course!
The inspiration for this thrifty little project comes from my friend Joli!
The story is simple, and it went a little like this… her sweet little girl was wanting a twirling ribbon to dance and play with, but they were a bit pricey! So… she made one! Now you can, too!
It’s so simple, and you’ll be done in a snap…
What You’ll Need:
- 1 Wooden Dowel: I used one that was 7/16″ x 12″
- 2 yards of 1″ ribbon
- Craft Paint
- Small Sponge Applicator for painting
What You’ll Do:
Paint the wooden dowel, and let dry. Don’t forget ~ old yogurt containers make great painting cups… and a plastic cup can be used to help the rod dry without getting everything all smudgy!
Now go grab your ribbon, and either some super glue or you can use the hot setting on your hot glue gun. Glue the ribbon onto the dowel {about the first inch and a half, or so} then let dry…
All done! Now give this to your little cutie… it’s time for some twirling!!
I wanted to snap some fun twirling shots, but what you need to understand is… I live in a man’s world.
That’s right ~ hubby and 2 boys, and none were too fond of twirling around the yard with a pink ribbon. Weird, I know.
So… here’s the best I got… but I know you’ll get the idea. Dance. Play. Twirl. Repeat.
{this would also make a fun, thrifty gift, too!}
