The magic of Star Wars is alive and well at the Disney Parks! Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has become a staple at the Disneyland Resort, and we couldn’t love it more. With unique shopping, food, and incredible experiences, what’s not to love? We’ve created a fun craft for you to bring a little bit of the galaxy home.
DIY Lightsaber
There have been so many amazing reviews about Galaxy's Edge. One of my favorite things is the shopping! Cool space gizmos and gadgets, droids, and character apparel are all the rage. Park guests can even make their own lightsaber souvenir! If you are looking for a lightsaber of your own or to make with your kids, then this is the craft for you.
DIY Lightsaber Supplies
Light up foam sword (we found ours at our local craft store, the dollar store may have some as well!)
Making Your DIY Lightsaber
Since our sword had a handle, we want to cut that off so it looks more like a lightsaber rather than like you belong with the Pirates of the Caribbean. Try your best to keep the handle smooth where you cut it off, but it doesn’t have to be perfect.
Then, use the silver Duct Tape to cover the handle. Wrap it around the handle and press it on nice and tight.
DIY Lightsaber Customizations
This DIY lightsaber craft is really one that allows for creativity and expression! You can let your kids decide how they want their handle to look, there are so many different styles of metallic tape combinations. At Savi's Workshop in Galaxy's Edge, guests get to customize their own DIY Lightsabers as well. Individuality is key!
We chose a foam sword so that our kids could battle without worrying about them getting hurt. And they were perfect! Our kids had so much fun with their new lightsabers.
