I love this kind of holiday craft because 1. It’s easy. 2. It takes minimal supplies. 3. It’s filled with TREATS! Let’s make them…
Lucky Leprechaun Cups
Gather:
How to:
- Use the awl to poke holes on either side of the plastic cup.
- Remove the staple from one side of hat. Feed the string through the holes of the cup.
- Reattach the string to the hat, securing it to the cup. Staple to secure.
- Fill the cup with any kind of filler.
- Make orange beard: wrap orange yarn around a 3 inch piece of cardboard. Tie a separate piece of yarn around one end and make a knot. Using a scissor, cut the end (not secured by the knot) to make a tassel. Secure the tassel/beard to the cup with a staple.
- Add treats to the lucky leprechaun cup!
