Once you’ve soaked your spitball with spit, you can take it out of your mouth and launch. , Your smaller pieces don’t have to be an exact size, but keep in mind you’ll be putting more than one layer onto your spitballs so make two sizes (one large enough to fit over a smaller ball). , To do this, grab the paper between your thumb, index finger, and middle finger.
