Arrange the 9 toothpicks thus: 7 + 3
3+1+1=5 5 toothpicks
You can make 5 triangles out of 9 toothpicks. With 6 toothpicks, make a large triangle with 2 toothpicks for each side. Now, take individual toothpicks, and make a smaller triangle inside the larger one by joining the midpoints of the sides of the previous triangle. (The vertices of the smaller triangle are the midpoints of the sides of the larger one).

Here are three ideas. #1 you could take toothpicks and marsh mellows and stick them together. #2 you could make blue jello for water (in river etc) put Swedish fish in the jello like fish and take 4 pretzel sticks and stick 'em in then tie stringy licorice to the ends then take toothpicks and stick them in between the licorice to make the deck. #3 you can take two apple slices and stick toothpicks with marshmallows into the insides of the apples. Hope that helped.
In order to build a strong toothpick bridge, it is necessary to use glue to keep the toothpicks together. Multiple toothpicks should be used for each section of the bridge to ensure it is strong.
Tara Donovan artwork: Toothpicks took about a month to get a 36 inch sized cube.
You arrange 12 toothpicks into a large square, subdivided into four squares : 2 toothpicks on each side and four more, one each from the middle of the sides to the center of the large square. Now you have four (small) squares. Take away 2 adjacent toothpicks from the ones in the center, and you have 2 squares : one remaining small one and the large one that has the small one inside it.
