bubble wands

k, ignore the dominoes in the picture. i'm just going to give instructions on the bubble wands. these are so fun to make for the kiddos! You take 3" x 6" wooden sticks (dowels) and choose whatever color of acrylic paint you want. Give the dowels a few coats of paint and let them dry completely. Then using black wire (I bought mine at Roberts), wrap the wire around a cookie cutter of the shape of your choosing. I used hearts and stars and circles, but you could use anything from moons to pumpkins. After forming the shape, wrap the wire 3 times around the top of the dowel, then proceed to spiral down the dowel and wrap 3 times around the bottom. Cut off excess wire. Wahla! You have your very own super cute bubble wands.
