DIY New Year's Eve Crowns
"And now we welcome the new year, full of things that have never been."
-Rainer Maria Rilke
We are in full tilt birthday party prep, so today's tutorial is going to be a quick one. I wanted to come up with a NYE star crown that was quick, kid-friendly, and fun... bonus points if it entailed using up some of the empty cardboard TP rolls that are taking over my studio drawers. Mission accomplished!
