Rubber Band Brushes

You Need:

• Dowels- 7/16 x 48"
• Rubberbands- 3 1/2" x 1/4"
• Masking Tape
• Duct Tape
• Scissors
• Sand Paper

You Do:

1. Cut dowels in 8" lengths (6 per dowel).
2. Sand rough edges.
3. Cut 16 rubberbands in half.
   
4. Tear 2 pieces of masking tape (approx. 3" in length each).
5. Attach one end of rubberband to masking tape as follows. Align 8 rubberbands in a row.
6. Roll tape on to one end of dowel.
7. Repeat step 5 with remaining rubberbands.
8. Tape second rubberband section over the first section.
   
9. Tear a 3" section of duct tape.
10. Wrap duct tape over masking tape. Pull tape as tight as you can as you wrap. This will smooth out the duct tape and secure the masking tape and rubberbands to dowel.
    
11. Trim approx. 2" off ends of rubberbands.
    

Put them out next to some paint
and see how the children use them! ENJOY!
