For Mouse's Party we needed some jet packs to finish the boys Rocket Man Outfits.
I got this idea from many similar ones on Pinterest.
I got this idea from many similar ones on Pinterest.
For each of the Jet packs I used
-2x 750ml plastic drink bottles - for Tiggers one's they were about
300ml.
- Rectangle of cardboard cut from a vege box.
- elastic about 5mm wide and 50cm long cut into 2 pieces.
- Silver water based paint.
- Orange crepe paper
- glue
To make the jet packs I painted the bottles, cardboard and elastic silver.
I punched some holes on each corner of the cardboard with a hole punch.
I then threaded the elastic through the holes and tied them to make arm bands.
I then glued the bottles onto the cardboard. I used PVA which wasn't strong enough. Maybe a hot glue gun would be better or super glue?
I then cut flames into the crepe paper and rolled them up and glued them into the bottle mouth holes.
A bit of drying and they were finished and cost me only a few dollars for the paint as everything else w
You can see the finished birthday outfit below and Mouse and Tigger just loved them.
