DIY - Mini Pinatas with Kary From Beauty, Clothes and All Things Nice!


Hi everyone! 
Todays DIY is how to make super cute mini pinatas! These would make a great little gift for someone or would be good as a small gift at parties. I did this DIY together with Kary from Beauty, Clothes and All Things Nice - you can see her blog here!



Supplies:

-Cardboard - We used one thick and one thinner
-Thin coloured paper or crepe paper
-Small lollies - we used skittles and M&Ms
-Scissors
-Glue
-Tape


1. Start by drawing out the shape of the pinata you want on the thicker cardboard. Cut out 2 of these.

2. Cut a strip of the thin cardboard the width you want your pinata.


3. Wrap the strip of the thin cardboard around one of the shapes you cut out and tape it there. Leave one of the ends un-taped for the lollies to go in.


4. Stick the other side of the pinata on.



5. Pour the lollies into the gap. 


6. Tape the hole closed.


7. Cut a strip of the coloured paper then cut slits along it.



8. Glue the coloured paper all over the pinata in rows.


Done! Super easy and can be done in an afternoon.
Me and Kary will be working together more in the future so make sure to check back for that!
