My Rubberband Bracelets

A little while ago, my mom bought me a Bandaloom, which is Walmart's version of the Rainbow Loom. Once I mastered it and secured some money from Christmas gifts, I went and bought the actual Rainbow Loom (because you can make more advanced bracelets with the Rainbow Loom since the parts can be moved to wherever you need them to go). Here are some of the bracelets I have made from best to worst:

This is a hexafish bracelet.

This is a totem pole bracelet.

This is a triple-link (a.k.a. triple-chain-link) bracelet.

It can be laid flat to make a coaster.

This is a feather bracelet.

This is a delta wing bracelet.

This is a ziagonal bracelet.

This is the x-twister bracelet.

These are starburst bracelets.

This is a liberty-twist bracelet.

This is a double-x bracelet.

This is a zippy chain bracelet.

These are ladder bracelets.

These are my Minecraft bracelets. The first one is Darkness, then Redness, then Whiteness. The second one is a creeper bracelet.

This is a rhombus bracelet (a.k.a. caterpillar bracelet).

This is a fishtail bracelet.

And finally, this is an inverted fishtail bracelet.

Minecraft Stuff for My Halloween Party

I'm having a Halloween party next weekend.  I have chosen a Minecraft theme.  These are the Minecraft masks that I made to hand out to each kid:

And this is a Minecraft game I made to play with bean bags:

My Origami Yoda Collection

I'm a big fan of Tom Angleberger's Origami Yoda books.  I've been making my own collection of the origami figures.

Paper Guns

Here are two paper guns that I made this past week:

My I-Pod

I made another I-Pod:

and bought a case for it:

If Your Parents Won't Buy It, Make Your Own

Tyvek Wallet

Last week, we found this cool video that showed how to make a wallet made out of a Tyvek envelope. Tyvek is a very strong material. My mom helped me make it. She did the folding and cutting. Then I drawed on it.

3 Dimensional Art

I made a bigger robot than the last one. It is made out of boxes.


I made this out of a small box and the kind of things my mom drinks and a bubble jar. My mom didn't think the glue would hold the strings. She was wrong!


I made this test dummy out of a piece of futon wood. We were throwing my brother's futon away and we picked apart the pieces. I hammered in nails for his hair and used two straps for his arms.



This is a video of a scary face sign. I got a new Skull Rug and my mom let me keep the big tube. I put a protein shake jar on top to make the head. Then I colored on the scary faces.
