If you don’t have a hole puncher, cut a small slit into each corner instead.
You can also tie the strings to a paperclip, a charm, or a small washer. If you have a small toy, like a Lego or plastic soldier, tie two strings together on each side to make loops. [7] X Research source
If you made loops for a small toy, slip the loops under the toy’s arms first.
This parachute will only work on small toys, about 1 to 2 inches (2. 5 to 5 centimeters) tall. Great toys include toy soldiers and Lego men. It won’t work on dolls and bears.
You can use yarn, fishing line, embroidery floss, or even thread!
Make sure that you are tying the strings behind the knots so that they don’t slide off.
The toy should be 1 to 2 inches (2. 5 to 5 centimeters) tall. If it’s too big or heavy, the parachute won’t work.
This parachute will work on action figures that are 3 to 4 inches (7. 6 to 10 centimeters) tall, like Star Wars action figures. [13] X Research source
Do this for the remaining three corners.
You will have something that looks like a bag or basket with a slit in each corner. Do not tape these slits up!
You will need two dots on each string, one fo each end. These will be your guides for the next step.
Keep the tape horizontal; don’t let it hang over the edge of the parachute.
Repeat this step for the other loop. Leave some space between the knot and the middle of the string. You want to be able to feed elastic through it.
