How To Make Bubble Wands
1. Wrap 1 pipe cleaner around a cookie cutter, twist where the two ends meet and cut off any excess pipe cleaner. 2 inch cookie cutters work best for this pipe cleaner craft.
2. Use a second pipe cleaner and loop it around the bottom of the shape pipe cleaner made in step one. Twist where all the pipe cleaners meet to secure. This is the handle for the bubble wand.
3. Lace beads through both ends of the pipe cleaner handle. Once you have put beads on the entire wand handle fold the remaining pipe cleaner up to keep the beads from falling off.
4. Dip these adorable DIY bubble wands into bubble solution and let your kids blow fun bubbles all day long.
Tips
âž¡ If your cookie cutters are smaller than 2 inches, you’ll only need 1 pipe cleaner per DIY bubble wand. Once you wrap the pipe cleaner around the cookie cutter and twist to secure the shape, use the remaining length as the handle for the wand.
âž¡ Are your kids not interested in bubbles? Or maybe it’s just too cold to go outside? Make these bubble wands into magical fairy wands for your kids! Your kids will be delighted with a magical wand to cast spells and create a world of fantasy indoors!
