lashes2508 Posted June 14, 2015 Author Posted June 14, 2015 Going in for my third attempt as I have changed bag , made tentacles thinner and omitted the part where you have to fill the head part with water , slight improvement just need to make smaller I think ! Quote
larnielass Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 I tried to make jelly worms using straws - disaster.! Quote
Panders Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Give up ! To be fair, Lashes, jelly fish do look like floating plastic bags - that's why so many are eaten by turtles and this is what kills many Quote
Jester Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 I made a volcano bottle a few years ago with oil, water and food colouring, it was a massive, massive fail and a waste of oil. Quote
Panders Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Think our expectations are way too high sometimes!! Quote
