last minute before a little library con I decided to make Nora's watermelon hammer from the food fight.

here is how it went...

• gather supplies

• cut a hole in one side at the middle of the paper towel tube
• insert over the end of the stick to forum a T support structure

• cut out a section of one foam ring to fit the rod
• slide all three rings on

• insert the ends of the tube into each foam half-sphere

• duct tape together
• fill with expanding foam for extra stability

• cover with painting tape, to smooth out the surface

• paint with mod podge or other similar glue to continue smoothing

• paint base light green
• add dark green stripes with a sponge

tahh-dahh!
