I've been seeing a few of these around Pinterest and have been wanting to try it for awhile now. This weekend I finally got my chance! Most of the tutorials I found used a drill, which is great, but power tools and I don't really get along, and we don't even own a drill. Then I stumbled upon this one from New Green Mama. She uses her crop-a-dile (which I already own) instead of a drill! Obviously she is a genius, because I never would've thought of that myself!
My first step was to order these paper straws that have been showing up EVERYWHERE, which I totally understand because they are awesome! I ordered mine from Sweets Treats Boutique on Etsy. She has all different colors, and even polka dots! It's $3.75 for a pack of 25, and shipping is $3.00, but if you order more than one, shipping on each additional item is only 50 cents, so I ordered two packs :) She will also email you a PDF of Straw Flags with any purchase. It was definitely worth it to me!
These to go cups are a lot easier than I thought they would be! And if you have a drill and would rather use that, this tutorial is the one I started with. All you need are mason jars, and grommets. As many as you want to make. I'm really excited about these, and will be making more! Let me know if you give it a shot! :)
i love this idea! I've never seen it, but i am definitely going to try it!
