BLAST OFF!

 Oh Pinterest, how do I love you?  Let me count the ways.  Awesome tutorial on Pinterest led me to make this super adorable Super Hero Jet Pack for my boy.  This project consisted of felt, ribbon, cardboard, spray paint, hot glue, velcro, and coke bottles.  The coke bottles were left from a party we had a while back and the only thing else I had to purchase was the felt. 

 I took and spray painted the bottles and one side of the cardboard.  The other side of the cardboard I took and glued a piece of orange felt to.  I made backpack straps out of the ribbon and secured the with velcro tabs to my superhero son can get his jet pack on and off in a flash (you know when he is trying to make a quit exit).  I also secured a chest strap onto the shoulder straps. 

 I cut out 2 pieces of red felt and one orange into flame like shapes and glued them into the neck of the bottles.  I also glued the bottles to the painted side of the cardboard. 

 I even added an ignitor button onto the chest strap for added effect.  Ha! 

 3-2-1 BLAST OFF! 

Yep, that's right.  There is some serious super hero action going on at our house.  :)  The boy LOVES it.
