Make It – Glitter Wands

Who wouldn’t love to get a cool glitter wand to play with? You can make one for your child.

How To Make It

What You’ll Need

• 12-inch length of 1/2-inch diameter, clear, rigid plastic tubing
• 2 end caps or corks that fit snuggly around/inside tubing
• glitter and/or sequins (ultra-fine glitter is especially pretty)
• water
• liquid soap or detergent (optional)
• toothpick (optional)

What to Do

Place a cap or cork on one end of the plastic tubing.

Add about 1/4 -1/3 teaspoon of glitter and/or sequins to the tube. Fill the tube with water to about an inch below the rim.

With your finger over the open end of the tube, invert the tube and observe. Add more glitter if needed.

If you want to keep glitter from clumping, dip the tip of a toothpick in liquid soap or detergent and then in the water within your wand.

Place the other cap or cork on the open end of the tube.

Now, have fun casting magic spells with your glitter wand!
