Tips/Hints
Ideas about what is needed for these projects
-
Baby rattle - Hobby stores sell the smallest plastic googley 'eyes' with a pastel or primary colored bead in them. The tiny ones are only 1/8" in diameter. First, glue 2 of the "eyes" together, back to back and set aside to dry. Next, make the handle. Find a fancy-handled toothpick or plastic skewer and paint the fancy end any color/colors you want. Let dry. Cut off the sharp end so the fancy end is about 3/8" long, just where you stopped painting. Make sure to make a flat cut so your "eyes" will stay glued. Glue the "rattle" to the end of the handle and you have a baby rattle that actually rattles. Cool huh?
