marshmallow loveseat

Today, I made a miniature loveseat-out of marshmallows! It is super soft and squishy, and probably really comfortable to really small people. Anyway, here's what you need:

stale marshmallows                                                toothpicks
four large wooden beads

Stick some marshmallows onto a toothpick, like a kabob. Do this over and over until you have five. Connect three of them for the seat. Then, connect the other two kabobs to the seat as a backrest. Stick two more marshmallows on the sides as armrests. Finally, stick a toothpick into each of the beads and put them on the bottom of each corner.

Other Ideas
Try making more furniture, like chairs, tables, and dressers. You could even put it in a dollhouse and make little people for it! But remember, your art, your choice!

A tip-don't squeeze the marshmallows too hard, because even though they are stale, they are not very strong. If you do squeeze them, they will probably end up as an outrageous, sticky, squishy mess, like this!
