DIY Fireballs

Hand-Held Fiery Fun for Pyromaniacs

It looks like fun, but you'll never really know how safe these DIY fireballs are until you try them. That said, we don't recommend trying this at home.

All you need is 100% cotton, scissors, lighter fuel, cotton string, and a needle. This video shows you how to make your own, but basically, you make a ball out of a cotton sheet, soak it in lighter fluid and light it on fire.

Implications - Do-it-yourself projects have had a huge following for years, but these crafty projects have garnered an even bigger audience with the explosion of the blogosphere. Fans of DIY can research how to create virtually anything they are interested in, making the target demographic essentially anyone who ever wants to create something at home.
