Happy first day of June!


 Happy first day of June!!! To me, the first day of June should be the first day of summer, I mean, it seems weird that half of June is spring and the other half is summer. Oh, and do you like the new background? *sigh* Our pool is never that clean. And talking of pools, that's our craft! It is just a small inflatable wading pool, but it's a pool! And sorry that there isn't many pics, I ran out of duck tape so I haven't finished mine yet. :/ 
And I'm posting kinda early today because we are going to a bookstore and I have no idea when we will get back.

You will need:
1. 4 - 6 swim noodles (I seem to be using a lot of those lately. Buy them at the dollar store)
2. A plastic table cloth (I got blue) 
3. Blue duck tape 
4. Hot glue, parchment paper and an iron

Step 1. Take two noodles, and duck tape them into a circle. Do that with all your noodles.  

Step 2. (I thought I had a pic for this step?!) Fold up the plastic table cloth so that it is smaller, but a noodle ring can fit on it. Cover the table cloth with parchment paper and iron it all over so it sticks together like Rudy did HERE.

Step 3. Stack your rings on top of each other, and cover with blue duck tape.

Step 4. Let your hot glue gun get really hot, and follow the picture. 
And on that, put the plastic table cloth, flip the whole thing over, and trim the table cloth so there is a bottom for the pool. I really hope you understood that. :P I'm not sure how to put 'water' in it though. :(                                                                                                                                                 

Have fun 'swimming' XD                                                                                                                        
Bye! :)
