plarn betta

A betta fish made from plarn.

This was a quick, easy and fun project. The only downside was all the static electricity generated – that was annoying.  This project calls for those very thin bags – the kind that are in the vegetable aisle at the market – to make it look authentically fishy.  I wonder if plarn from the usual checkout bags isn’t quite as filled with static since it is thicker.

Have I yet displayed the depth of my lack of understanding of electrical properties?

Anyway for anyone who is interested in a truly care free pet:
