If you're the sort of person who loves hitting the pool as soon as the sun comes out, then you've probably had your fair share of fun with a pool noodle or two. You know - those long styrofoam thingies that come in a range of different colours and allow you to float in the pool.
But what you probably didn't know about pool noodles is that they're actually incredibly versatile. They can be used to make a variety of crafty creations from fun decorations to inventive children's toys.
