How to make simple stilts


At our local hardware store the other week I spotted these great chair feet....
and straight away I knew what I was going to use them for *smile*

...stilts!!


Husband of Mine drilled through the sides for me 
{the other hole was already there for its typical use}


And after giving them a good sand I wood burned circles all round...
...to fill with fun colour *smile*


To keep them good for outside play I spray painted them with outdoor wood varnish


Before threading through some rope...
And then he was off!


Simple stilts ~ simple fun!

Happy crafting, Kelly
