I got a car a few months ago and I'm that kind of person who can't stand not having something to jazz things up a little. I went through a pipe cleaner phase and whipped up this little pineapple car deco-thing to hang from my rear-view mirror and it still hangs there to this day! My friend suggested to post this DIY onto my blog like two months ago and I'm only getting around to doing this now because I was lazy hahaha (sorry sarah!). Here is the instructions >>>>
YOU'LL NEED
- pipecleaners (any colour - I used silver)
- scissors
- string
WHAT TO DO
It is a really simple project that pretty much just requires about 10 minutes of your time and a vacuum cleaner afterwards to clean up the little pieces of pipe cleaner. What I did was start bending the pipe cleaner in the desired shapes and wrapped the ends around each other. I found that I didn't really need to cut the pipe cleaner until i finished - just kept adding to the end of the pipe cleaner until my shape was done! To finish it off, I tied some string onto the top of the pineapple and just tied it off on my car :) Its good to hang from the mirror because it's light and you can see through it. I've been told that it is illegal to hang things from your rear-view mirror because its distracting, but this is nearly noticeable and light so it should be sweet. I don't think the authorities are too strict on that anyway. "214 we got a wild P-plater on the loose with a bedazzled object hanging from her rear-view mirror". yeahhhhhh nah.
