For our last big vacation (Disney World) we filled a large piggy bank.
the pig didn't stand a chance!
And so this time we thought what new piggy bank could we get to help the family save for the next big vacay.
In no time the boys came up with an idea from Fortnite, not surprisingly with how much they play that game.
Loot Llama!
So mom and I began to figure out how we would make a paper mache loot llama. The interwebs were not very helpful as most Google searches for 'homemade paper mache loot llama' resulted in weak looking pinatas.
So we took upon ourselves to create an original loot llama.
it started as a multi layer paper mache over a large balloon. Then we used small pop cans for the sturdy llama legs as this pack animal had to hold lots of loot.
Then we too a empty instant oatmeal box and cut and taped it into the shape of a llama head. This was taped on to a paper drink cup used as a neck and we had a full llama body. This was covered in numerous layers of mache and finally a custom paint job.
Now that we have this behemoth complete we cut a slot in the back for loot and set ourselves on filling it up.
So far we have done well, I'd say in 3 months we have is a third to one half full. The distruction of the loot llama will be epic.
Especially since we built a Fortnite pick axe to bust it open.
Stay tuned for those pics.
