Instructions
- For an easy way to paint your noodles, make a hook out of a pipe cleaner and slide your noodle onto the hook so it stays on. Hold the pipe cleaner like a lollipop and paint your noodle with acrylic paint while upright on the hook.
- You can also add it to a cup like you would add a flower to a vase and let it droop over the edge while it dries. Simply pull out the pipe cleaner when it's all dry to reuse later.
- You can also paint the noodle on the pipe cleaner and then lay it on wax paper to dry or little kids may like to put larger noodles on their fingers to paint and then lay them on wax paper to dry.
- When the noodles are dry, twist two pipe cleaners together to make a long strand and have your kid thread their noodles onto the necklace. Twist remaining pipe cleaner ends together to close and your necklace is ready to wear!
