Musical Bell Shaker

Shake, rattle, and roll! Colorful ribbons keep the bells in place and make this musical bell shaker look extra festive.

What You'll Need:

  • Toilet paper tube
  • Acrylic paint
  • Sparkling stickers
  • 16 jingle bells
  • 16 pieces of 1/8-inch-wide ribbon, each 6 inches long

Tools:

  • Tape measure
  • Pencil
  • 1/8-inch paper punch
  • Paintbrush

Step 1: With a tape measure and pencil, mark positions for eight holes approximately 1/2 inch apart along both edges of the tube. Punch a hole at every pencil mark. Punch another row of holes 1/2 inch above the first row, spacing them between the first holes.

Step 2: Paint the tube the color of your choice; let dry. Apply stickers around the tube. Tie bells to the bottom row of holes using 6-inch lengths of ribbon. Double-knot each ribbon.
