I know this has nothing to do with hair, but get used to is, my second hobby parties
As a family, we watch NCIS, a lot, and my son just happens to love guns, he builds them with his Lego's, and keeps a water gun in the back of his pants, so he can pull it out on people and say, " Hands up now! " which i find hilarious, especially since one of his god mothers' is a cop. I know someone out there may say, its bad, and he'll grow up to be a killer, but as long as i do my best to teach him right from wrong my hands or clean
But any who, i brought a marshmallow shooter kit for 7 bucks at a thrift store, which was way to much i think. and i thought it would be a cool idea to have a marshmallow fight with some of the neighborhood children, if i could figure out how to make them for cheap.
above is my first attempt and i think it came out well. so instead of having the marshmallows i fight, i wanted to use these at my son's 4th birthday party which is a safari theme. Who would want to go into a jungle without something to protect? Even if the ammo is sweet and made entirely out of sugar.
To begin
you will need 1/2 inch PVC pipe, cut into desired lengths
at least one T shaped connector piece
1 Coupler piece
and some end caps to cap off the handles, so the marshmallows will shoot through.
since it is a party, I decided to package each
shooter in its own little bag, with patterned paper topper
for the shooter in the first picture I used
- 1 coupler for the mouthpiece
- 2 T joints for connectors
- 5 pieces of PVC, 3 for the body, and 2 for handles
- and 2 end caps to keep the marshmallows flowing
I think it's cool!
ReplyDeleteHow does this work? I've never heard of it before but it sounds interesting. And where'd you get all the pieces?? Seems creative (:
ReplyDeleteWhat in the... ? Does that really work?!! Looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteYes it really works... and they are fun, yesterday my mother and son was having a fight with them, if you search marshmallow shooters, you will find all sorts of videos and photos
