Simple DIY Party Decorations With Drinking Straws
Summer is the perfect time for fun and colorful party decorations, and quick party decorations take the prize, right? I shared my plastic straw themed birthday party decorations with you a few weeks ago, and now I’m sharing them with you as a total party theme, with links to each individual project. The star burst straw centerpieces are so simple to make, and could be great for just about any event, made in the colors to match your theme. Really truly, the simplest most festive decorations ever. So enjoy these ideas and give them a try, you might even decide to make your Succah decorations from plastic straws, which is great for making sure the Succah won’t melt if it rains, a stronger possibility this year as Succot falls a bit later in the year!
And just a note regarding the fact that using plastic straws may not be eco-conscious: yes it is true plastic straws are not eco-friendly, and I am the first one to go the extra mile to recycle, but as I see it, these decorations are the kind of thing you’ll use over and over again, as opposed to something that likely will go in the trash, so that in itself is eco-conscious? And if you have no use for these amazing plastic straw decorations after the party, donate them!
Ah yes, the links to these projects, here they are:
- DIY Plastic Straw Starbursts, great for so many occasions.
- DIY Plastic Straw Cake Banner is cute as can be and can be made in 5 minutes!
- DIY Plastic Straw Cake Flowers have that vintage cake decor vibe and can be the answer to your cake decorating dilemma! (They were for me, phew!)
Now that you’ve saved sooooo much time on the decorations, maybe you can use that time for something else, like sleep? Or a homemade gift? Or some gardening?
