We've all made one and we've all shed a tear when we first got one waiting in our child's cubby. And maybe even displayed it hanging on our rear view window. Yes that's where mine is and it's also where I got inspired for the title of my blog. Making a macaroni necklace embodies childhood and is just plain fun, so here it goes....
First grab some noodles... I prefer rigatoni (pictured above).
Then get some rubbing alcohol, food coloring and string or yarn.
Put your noodles in a sandwich size ziploc bag....
pour a teaspoon of rubbing alcohol in the bag along with a few drops of food coloring (more drops if you want a deeper color). Then shake the bag vigorously for about 30 seconds. Poor bag out onto a piece of parchment paper and let it dry (about an hour).
Once all the noodles are dry have the kids pick their favorite color of string and start macaroning!!!
Not too bad... I wore it all day!
