I had few more lightsabers I wanted to make after my previous two lightsaber makes (blue and light green) and decided it was about time I got them made!
Here is a slightly smaller one compared to the previous blue and green, and I’ve used a dark shade of green for the beam.
I still have one more I have an idea for…well, you can never have too many!

Stuff the lightsaber handle and light beam and sew together. You could put in some plastic or card tubing into the beam to make it more sturdy if you want. Sew on the lightsaber details. Place some stuffing into the black circle button and band button.
