How to Make BB8 from Star Wars The Force Awakens

If you're a Star Wars fan, you probably know that Star Wars Episode 7 is coming out this month, December 2015!  I have made a new droid from the movie, BB8, in honer of the movie! If you haven't seen the trailer click this link. Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer (Official)




To make this adorable robot you will need the following:

1 roll of white duct tape
1 roll of orange duct tape
1 roll of gray duct tape
1 soccer or basketball
2 tiny pencils
1 yogurt container




First take the ball and cover it with white duct tape then using the pattern above, take the gray and orange duct tape and carefully follow this pattern. Take one of the tiny pencils and tape it to the top of the ball vertically then take the yogurt container and cover it with the white duct tape. Next, tape the yogurt container to the top of the tiny pencil,l and then take your black, gray, and orange tape and decorate the head like this.



For the last step, take the second pencil and cover it with the black duct tape. Tape it to the top of his head, and there you have it, your very own BB8!!

happy crafting!

How to Make a Core from Portal 2

This craft, i think, is really cool even if you don't like Portal 2. These guy are called cores:



The photo above shows two types of homemade cores: the space core ( the one on the right ),  and personality core (AKA wheatly is on the left.)
Here are the supplies:

A roll of white duct tape
A roll of black electric tape
A roll of regular duct tape
A soccer ball
A sheet of black, blue or orange paper ( depending on which core you are making)
A few assorted crayons and pencils
A black sharpie

To make these cores, you need to cover the soccer ball entirely with white duct tape, then take four small crayons and cover them with black electric tape. Next grab your two long pencils and cover them in white duct tape, then take two small pieces of gray duct tape and put them in the middle of the pencil but remember to leave a space between the pieces of tape. Repeat this step with both pencils and then tape one to the bottom and one to the top.

So it looks looks like this:



The last couple steps are to draw the face on like this and glue two black circles on the sides.


 

HAPPY BUILDING!!

How to Make a Tiny Styrofoam Christmas Tree

The projects in my blog are kind of hard, so i will start with an easy one, and since its Christmas, I thought we could make a tiny Christmas tree! Here's the ingredients:                                                            one sparkly pipe cleaner                                                                                                                            a piece of green felt                                                                                                                                    a piece of yellow craft foam                                                                                                                      a pair of googly eyes                                                                                                                                  a cone of styrofoam   ( if you don't have any styrofoam, just use a cone of paper)


                                        


To make this adorable Christmas tree, get a glue gun fired up and cut an ark shape out of the green felt. Glue the ark shape onto the cone, then let the glue dry. About five minutes later, take the googly eyes and glue them in the center of the green cone. Get the pipe cleaner and wrap it around the cone, then glue the ends of the pipe cleaner onto the cone. (Make sure the pipe cleaner is not covering the eyes.)  Cut a star shape out of the craft foam, then glue it to the top of the tree. And there you have your tiny Christmas tree!
