It was created by Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft designers as part of their Kids Camp series. It stands to reason that you can get a whole lot more creative and colorful with wooden spools, balls and paint than you can with fettucini. You can fashion them into jewelry a whole lot faster than you can those tiny macaroni pieces. 1 yard lacing material. 1 package pony beads.
Acrylic paints in assorted colors.
Each wooden piece should be painted with a bright-colored base coat. Go for a theme and paint each type of wooden piece the same color, or each one a different color, if you prefer. Slide the end of a paintbrush through the center hole and hold the paintbrush while you paint the piece. Allow time to dry. Decorate each piece with a contrasting color, different from the base coat.
