Don’t you just love how fun these little DIY Halloween Batty Straws are?
For the final touch on my DIY Halloween tablescape this year I thought it would be fun to add sparkly silver bats (cut from Glitter Cardstock with my Cricut Maker.) In the past, I have usually done Drink wraps (which can look super cute) but this time I decided to switch things up. I considered doing a straw pennant but went with just hot gluing bats to better match my Spider, Bat, and Tombstone theme (and Black, Silver, and white colors.)
This final project only took a few minutes but really did add that perfect sparkly touch to my tablescape. I love how it looked soo much I am thinking of doing something similar (only with Sugarskulls) for my upcoming Day of the Dead party.
