I'll post pictures later, but I've been making wands with bamboo lately! If you want to put a core of sorts inside you are able with bamboo. Fill in one end with hardening clay, spackling for walls or even hot glue. Cut it to the size you would like, I use a small hand saw for mine. Remember the knots prevent having a full hollow core.

You can use pretty much anything for a core, whether it be seeds, feathers, hair, etc. Just choose your core, and then as you had with the other end, seal the end up.

I actually put a peacock feather into the one that I made, and my son decided on carrot seeds lol! While my other son put a cat tail into his.

Now for designing. You can take the hot glue and do designs for the handles like I did or even carve the bamboo with a knife if you wish to. The ones I will show a picture of later are done with hot glue.

Once that's all done, paint it with acrylic paint if you wish!
