Actually I'm just guessing because we threw the bag away, maybe its only 1,000 but this is what happens when you let the kids play with them. Don't worry, I told them to. I needed the colors all mixed up for my project. Check out the newest issue of Parents magazine to see our inspiration - we're making a giant chain (similar to one you'd make out of paper links) to hang on the Christmas tree. Oh and if you Google "pipe cleaners" you will get actual pipe cleaning tools, if you're looking for the fun colorful sort try "chenille stems" instead.

I saw this in the magazine and thought how cool that would be, but Sprite still seems a little young for it. Hopefully, you'll post the results! I'm sure it will be beautiful. Thanks for stopping by!
You're right I mostly did it on my own. They helped mix the colors as seen in the photo then she handed them to me as I went. I actually finished it on my own when they were in bed.
What a cute idea. After reading your comment on my Baby Bunching post at Momformation I'm amazed you have time to read magazines!
I remember being shocked a few years back to see pipecleaners had been renamed chenille stems.
Enjoy the project!
