There's something about plastic jewelry-making beads that end up all over my house when we use them for craft projects. What a mess! We swapped out those plastic nightmares for paper straws and never looked back.
Make your own festive necklaces with a few easy-to-find supplies. Whether you're getting dressed up for a special event, gearing up for Mardi Gras, or looking for a "just because" project, these paper straw necklaces are a mom-approved craft that is suitable for even the youngest of artisans.
Supplies Needed:
- Paper Straws ~ We found our rainbow unicorn themed straws at Target
- String
- Needle (optional)
- Embellishments (optional) ~ stickers, paper cutouts, charms
Instructions:
- Cut the paper straws into smaller segments. Our straws are cut to 3/4 inches long.
- String the paper straws onto your ribbon/string.
- Embellish to your liking.
