Place the stakes 18” apart and slide a pool noodle over each one of them.  You may need to adjust the lengths of the stakes as the length of the pool noodles vary. It doesn’t matter what color your pool noodles are!

    Is a connector a special type of noodle?

      There are a lot of ways you can do it. Unless you can find an actual pool noodle connector you can easily make your own by slicing up a pool noodle and carving holes out or simply using some duct tape!
