Create your own Jetpack

Jetpacks make me happy - thank goodness they are easy to make.  All you need:



tin foil
2 oatmeal containers
     (or 2 ltr. bottles, or Pringles cans, etc)
2 plastic or styrofoam cups
red or orange crepe paper or ribbon
duct tape
scotch tape (to hold down stray pieces of tin foil)


I sat down and just pieced together everything; wrapping the oatmeal containers in tin foil and taping it down.  Using duct tape to make straps (just tear off a long piece and fold it in half - nice, sturdy strap).   I didn't really measure much, but a jet pack is for fun... and for feeling happy.  Seriously, make one and try it on, you'll see what I mean.  Better yet, walk around your workplace wearing it - the smiles and laughter will do everyone good.
