![]() Who needs a manicure? I do! Check this out.Īlrightie then. After cutting, I then sanded the cut edge a bit, to remove any jaggy edges. ![]() Then I fired up my handy Dremmel and cut it along the line. Then I took one of my goggle “lenses” and marked off how much of the orb I needed for my eyeballs. I started by popping out the battery compartment and light, so that I had a hollow globe. I honestly am not sure what their original purpose was, but they were battery powered and glowed in my choice of red, green or blue. Anyway, I went looking for anything similar at Walmart and found these orbs in the pool section, on clearance. Which is what I recommend you do if you live in a cold weather climate that doesn’t stock whiffle balls year-round. If I wasn’t such an impatient gal, I would have gone online and ordered them through EBay. Ones like this…īut alas, there were none to be had in late September at Walmart. I went in search of 2 whiffle balls, the kind that are white with half the orb all “holey” and half of it plain. I also had a buckle from the same backpack strap, so I threaded the straps through that to make the goggles adjustable. I used a black nylon strap that I stole from my kid’s old backpack, but you can buy it by the yard at JoAnn’s. It looks like I forgot to photograph the slots before I threaded the strap through them, but this is what they looked like after I strapped them up. Cut one slot, about an inch wide on each ring, directly opposite the grommet. I did this with my trusty grommeting tool, but I could have used my Dremmel if it had occurred to me, and I’m sure the holes would’ve been prettier. Ok, next step is to make a way to attach the straps. What more could I ask? They’re starting to look like goggles now, huh? Not the neatest job, but they are secured enough for my 8 year old. The end result is two rings attached like so… So now, I grommeted the two rings together, using a silver grommet. ![]() These don’t have to be perfect, just big enough to slip a small grommet through. I next popped a hole through the side of each lid, using my grommeting tool, which I will also need for the step after this. The jars, with lids confiscated, will now make pretty vases for some cut flowers. To do this, I started with two Mason jar lids, with the inner circles removed. Here’s a list of things you will need to make the goggles and hat:īlack nylon strap (long enough to wrap your child’s head twice) I putting out this tutorial early in the season so that anyone who want to make one for their little guy will have time to make it happen before the big day.
