What you need
- hot glue gun
- glue sticks
- mini glue stick (about 5/16" diameter)
- permanent marker
- small nail (3/4" long)
- scissors
How to make the syringe
1. Cut a 1 1/4" piece of the mini glue stick
2. With the hot glue gun squeeze a glob slightly larger than the mini glue stick diameter on a
heat resistant mat and center mini glue stick piece in it
3. With the hot glue gun squeeze a slightly smaller glop on the mat
4. After hot glue has completely cooled off, add a small amount of glue on the center of the syringe
top and let cool.
5. Take the smaller glop from step 3 and glue onto syringe top (centered)
6. Take small nail and surround top 1/4" with glue, roll it so it is evenly distributed around the nail
7. Glue needle to the bottom center of the syringe
8. You can either cut off the nail sticking out (to be save and not scratch your doll) or put a small
amount of glue at the tip of the nail, again to protect the dolls and everybody else from being
poked.
9. Take the permanent marker and mark the fill lines on the syringe
You are done !!!
Oh my gosh that is so cute!
ReplyDeleteBut just wondering, is there a way to make it
without all the hot glue,(I can't use hot glue)
:D
You could use translucent clay like FIMO or Sculpey for either the hole syringe or just for all the parts besides the glue stick (tube part). If you use the glue stick for the tube part, prepare all the other parts and bake them, then glue them onto the glue stick when cold. Hope that helped.
