Light up the night with some genie magic! Make a string of DIY Genie Dream Lights with your child, then cuddle up with a Tala or Nahal plush while watching your favorite episode of Shimmer and Shine.<\/p>\n
(Difficulty Level: <\/strong>Medium)<\/p>\n What You\u2019ll Need<\/strong><\/p>\n 10 Disposable plastic drinking cups (thin and clear, or lightly frosted) How To Make<\/strong><\/p>\n Step One<\/strong>: Poke a small hole into the bottom of each of the 10 plastic cups. With a pair of scissors, cut an X shape through each hole.<\/p>\n Step Two<\/strong>: Use a paint brush to coat the outside of one cup with decoupage glue. Make sure to also cover the rim and bottom.<\/p>\n Step Three<\/strong>: Sprinkle pink glitter onto the wet decoupage glue.<\/p>\n Repeat steps two and three<\/strong> with each cup until you have 3 blue cups, 3 gold cups, and 4 pink cups. Allow several hours for cups to dry.<\/p>\n Step Four<\/strong>: Take one dry cup at a time and carefully push a string light bulb through each cup’s X mark. Start one bulb in from the end and alternate glitter colors. Make sure to skip a bulb each time, until all 10 cups are strung across the entire string of lights.<\/p>\n Step Five<\/strong>: Use a nylon zip tie to attach each end of the string of lights to your desired area. Trim the hanging end of the zip tie with a pair of scissors. Sturdy string or rope would also work.<\/p>\n Note<\/strong>: These lights should not get hot and will not melt the cups. However, I do recommend that you unplug the lights when you are not in the room with your child as a precautionary measure and to help conserve electricity.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Light up the night with some genie magic!
