How to Make Pool Noodle Light Sabers
You can make your own DIY pool noodle light sabers!
Star Wars Birthday Party Tutorial
Last week I shared our Star Wars Birthday Party food, activities, and decorations as we as the party costs with you.
Today I want to go into more detail on the Pool noodle light sabers that we used for costumes and activities. The DIY light sabers served as a costume prop for the kids as well as a tool used in a balloon storm trooper fight! You can make these for yourself using this simple tutorial!
How to Make DIY Pool Noodle Light Sabers
What is a Star Wars party without light sabers? It wasn’t cost effective (or smart) to buy 20 plastic lightsabers for the kids so we made our own!
What You Need:
- Pool noodles (1/2 the amount that you need)
- Silver Duct Tape
- Black Electrical Tape
- Scissiors
Directions:
STEP 1
First, you will need to cut all of the pool noodles in half to make 2 DIY light sabers per pool noodle.
STEP 2
Then, wrap three strips of silver duct tape around the bottom of each noodle. This makes the “metal” handle.
STEP 3
Now, wrap one strip of electrical tape around the top and bottom of the duct tape for handle trim.
STEP 4
Add two small pieces of electrical tape as a button/switch to finish up the design.
STEP 5
Your little Jedis are now ready for battle! Use these light sabers to take down the Death Star Pinata!
