How Do You Make A Hoola Hoop?
This inexpensive project will take you less than an hour to complete and your children and teens will be thrilled with the hula hoops you create for them. Older kids can help and with your assistance, the younger ones can handle the decorations for the final hula hoops. The materials are available at department, home improvement and irrigation specialty stores. You will be able to make seven or eight of these hoops from a single 100-foot package of PVC irrigation tubing for $15 to $25. Step 1 Determine the length of PVC tubing that you need by forming a circle with it at one end. Set one edge of the circle on the ground and have the person for whom it is being made stand next to the circle. Adjust the circle’s size so that the highest point is about as tall as the midway point between the person’s shoulder and belly button. Use a small piece of masking tape to mark the spot on the PVC where you will cut the tubing from the roll. Step 2 Cut the tubing with a hacksaw or with a PVC cutter
