How to make a DIY Tangle fidget toy

For this project, you'll need some plastic straws, scissors, and rubber bands (you can find them at any grocery store). Start by tying the ends of each individual band together, so they are connected securely while also making sure it won’t snap off when being handled or pulled apart during the activity.

Take scissors and cut the straws into 5-centimeter pieces; you can make them smaller if desired! Now slide each piece over the assembled rubber band chain (using two extra ones at either side), making sure that the entire T’s cross sections are covered in plastic before adding more links for durability.
When you're done, add two extra rubber bands at the ends of your tangle toy and tie them together. There you have it! Your very own tangle fidget toy. If you are having trouble, check out this neat instructional video by Wow! Paper crafts
