Your final magnet will attach to the bottom of the plastic bubble and hold your Throwie in place. Make sure it is oriented the right way before gluing by testing it out on the bottom of the 'Throwie' pile.

Hot glue the magnet to the center of the inside of the plastic bubble, place your Throwie on top. Then just snap the top of the bubble back on and enjoy!

At this point you can add some finishing touches, maybe some embroidery or a happy face. I separated the strands of my ribbon tentacles to get more of the wispy/stringy look. You can also try out different combinations of LED colors and plastic bubbles.

*Although these are Throwies, the plastic bubbles are pretty brittle. I don't recommend tossing them at things, I had a few bounce off surfaces and break when the magnet didn't catch.*
