Marshmallow Guns

 Making a Marshmallow Gun

Merry Christmas all!  I hope all is well! We had a great time here, and we have more fun times coming this week!

My nephew is having his 12th birthday party today, and with all the costs of Christmas and my daughter's birthday (she is a Christmas Eve baby), the thought of spending a ton is daunting!  So I came across this blog, that led to this blog that had info about making a marshmallow gun!  How cool is that?  It only requires a quick trip to the hardware store for pvc piping and accessories and a hand saw or pvc pipe cutter. Oh, and a bag of mini marshmallows.  I made him 2 of them, so he can play with someone else or his brother, and they were VERY easy to make. Chris and I had a blast playing with them when we made them! (Sorry Joe).  They do not come out too fast, so no injuries, and we made a rule that you must aim below the belt. The awesome news? Making 2 guns and 1 bag of mini marshmallows cost only...drum roll please...(cover your eyes Jen and Joey)...$4.38!!.  I am so proud of myself! It is so hard to find a craft for boys, and this one was so cool! I will defiantly keep it on my list of quick and easy gifts!
