Mini Lid Banjos

Make use of all your extra lids laying around to make a mini banjo. The materials are simple and the result will be super fun for your little ones to make and play with.

--WHAT YOU'LL NEED--

Loom Bands – four per banjo
Washi tape
Duct tape

Place four loom bands over the lid and secure in place with a pice of duct tape

Next cut the end from your jumbo craft stick and decorate it with a washi tape pattern.

Finally use small dabs of craft glue to stick on your sequins, or alternatively use plastic gems or a marker to draw the little tuning knobs on the end of your banjo handle.
