Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pool Noodles
Cut seven 7-foot pieces of nylon rope.
Thread each pool noodle with a piece of rope. To make threading easier, attach a fishing weight to one end of the rope and pull it through the noodle.
Shape each noodle into a petal and tie the ends of the rope to secure the shape.
Step 2: Arrange the Petals
Lay the pool noodle petals next to each other to create your desired flower design.
If using multiple colors, arrange them to enhance the floral effect.
Step 3: Fasten with Zip Ties
Use zip ties to attach the petals together, ensuring the ribbed side is facing up.
Tuck any excess ends between the noodles to avoid scratches.
Step 4: Create the Flower Center
Gather the cord ends from two adjacent noodles and tie them together, starting from one end and working to the other.
Continue knotting the cords for each noodle, forming a tighter circle as you go, resembling a flower’s center.
Step 5: Final Touches
Thread any excess cable strands through the center hole of the float and secure them with a zip tie.
Your pool noodle flower float is now ready! Toss it into the water for a fun and relaxing float.
Enjoy your colorful creation and make a splash this summer!
