The Easiest Mini Bow Ever!

 

This is the easiest mini bow ever because you can make it with basic materials that you might already have around the house.  It only takes one step to make it!

I came up with this idea myself after trying a lot of other versions on the Internet.  Mine is easier and works better, so if you make it and share with your friends, be sure to give credit to Yo Makes!  

(Well, maybe it doesn't always work better, but it's *WAY* easier.)

You just need:

• A ruler with a hole in the middle - If your ruler doesn't have a hole in the middle,  you can drill your own hole.
• A rubber band - I like to use the thicker kind because it shoots harder.
• Some bamboo skewers - You might already have some in your kitchen.  If you do not have bamboo skewers, You can order them here. Or I will show you how to use a pencil instead.

First, you string the bow by stretching the rubber band across the bow. 

Ta da! You are done making it!

Now I will show you how to use it:

1) Hold the ruler with your fingers in a way that the rubber band in the front is not blocking the hole.

2) Thread the skewer threw the hole and pull back. Aim and fire! have fun! 

Warning: Do not shoot at people! The skewers can pierce up to four layers of cardboard!

Do not shoot at the wall because it might make a hole in the wall.

If you don't have any skewers, you can whittle down a pencil to fit through the hole.
