Tiny Golf, the Mini Golf Hole on Your Desk
Not so long ago, I went to a bookstore and they have this display with all of these desk toys. One of those toys was a mini golf game, complete with a putter, golf ball and even a sandtrap. I've created basically the same thing here (minus the sandtrap). Now you can practice your putting at work!
Supplies
You'll need:
green felt
red felt
bamboo skewers
a popsicle stick
a small marble
a pencil
scissors
a glue gun
Cut Out Your Green
I decided to make a simple hole with a ramp, so all I had to do for this step was cut out a piece of felt. If you like, you can make a more adventurous green!
Elevations
To make an elevation for the ramp, cut out 2 rectangles and glue them to the green as shown.
Hole and Walls
Next, cut your hole out. After that, cut skewers and glue them around the green for some walls to keep your marble from running away.
Ramp
Take 2 ends of the skewers and place them like so to make a ramp for the marble to roll up.
Flag
Of course, no mini golf course, even a tiny one, doesn't have a flag :D simply take a bit of skewer and glue a triangle-shaped piece of felt to it to make a cute red flag.
Putter
To make the putter, cut a bit of popsicle stick and glue it to a piece of skewer.
All Done!
We're finished! Now you have your own beautiful mini golf to play with on sunny (or rainy) days!
Thanks for reading this instructable! If you make a different hole, I'd love to see it in the
"I made it!" section.
This is an entry in the 1-hour challenge, so votes, comments, and likes are appreciated :D
Have a great day!
