Shaped Bubble Wands – Instructions:

1. If you use small cookie cutter shapes for your DIY bubble wands, you’ll need one pipe cleaner per bubble wand. Start by wrapping the pipe cleaner around the cookie cutter, forming the shape of the cookie cutter. When you reach the end of the shape wrap the remaining pipe cleaner section around the shape a few times to close it shut. Then the remaining excess of the pipe cleaner becomes the handle for your bubble wand.

2. Thread the bubble wand handle with colorful beads. When you reach the bottom of the pipe cleaner with your beads, fold the pipe cleaner end up to secure the beads in place. We like to bunch the pipe cleaner up into a little ball on the end after bending it up to help it stay sealed shut.

3. If you use larger cookie cutters, plan for two pipe cleaners per DIY bubble wand. Mold the first pipe cleaner around the cookie cutter to form the shape. Connect the ends together to close it shut by wrapping the pipe cleaner around itself a few times. Then cut off any excess pipe cleaner piece with your scissors.

4. Fill the second pipe cleaner about half way full of beads. Bend the end of the pipe cleaner up to keep the beads in place. Then wrap the other end of the pipe cleaner around the pipe cleaner shape a few times to connect the two pieces together. Cut off any excess pipe cleaner with your scissors.

Did I mention how these DIY bubble wands produce some amazing bubbles?!! I think for younger children, the smaller cookie cutter shapes are more ideal. They resemble a size similar to a regular bubble wand.
