A great project for the school holidays or the whole family😃
With of this handy idea you can make yourself a lovely and fluffy little rug.
This rug is super easy to make.
You will need the following:
🔸Empty toilet rolls
🔸Wool in several different colours
🔸Scissors
🔸An anti-slip bath mat with small holes
Instructions:
🔹Place two toilet rolls together and wrap a good amount of wool around it. Next, use a little bit of wool to wrap between the two toilet rolls and then remove the toilet rolls from the wool.
🔹Tie a knot in the small piece of wool you used to keep the wool together and then cut open the sides of the wool.
🔹Use the scissors to trim the wool so it forms a nice round ball.
🔹Get out the anti slip bath mat and tie the ball to it.
🔹Repeat this process until the entire bath mat is covered in woollen balls like in the picture above
Once you’ve tied all of these woollen balls to the bath mat, you’ve got yourself a super cute rug!
See video as well is the above instructions seem a bit confusing.
Also there a few other ideas on the side panel of the video.:

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
