Make it Work with Marbles!

Today's Make it Work is with Marbles! Beyond the obvious games you can play with Marbles there are quite a few other things you can do with them! You can use Marbles to:

*Foot Spa
Put some Marbles in a large bowl or tub, fill with hot water and/or essential oils and you've got your own foot spa! Roll your feet on top of the marbles for a massage!

*Painting
Drop Marbles into paint and then roll them around on paper! Fun artwork the kids will love to create!

*Vase Base
Fill the bottom of a vase/planter with Marbles to hold up flowers/bamboo/small plants/etc! Looks great and keeps the flowers standing upright!

*Fish Fun
Put Marbles in the bottom of a fish bowl/aquarium to give a fun flashy look to the tank! Plus, Marbles are typically cheaper than beads specifically made for tanks!

*Frame it
Glue Marbles onto a basic frame for a flash of color!

*Sparkle
Glue Marbles onto any dish, bowl, glass, etc to use as a candle holder. The candle light will make the Marbles sparkle!
