********************************************************************
 
How to make the Party Hats and Blow Horns:
 
 
We found a Party Hat template on line and just reduced it by 1/3 and printed it out

 
 
Also some confetti or something to decorate the hats with.

 
I also used a hole punch to make different color decorations.
 

Trace your Party Hat pattern.

 
Trace as many as you need

 
I decorated them before I cut them.

 
Doesn't it look pretty??
 
I forgot to take pictures of the final product so just cut it out, then roll it and glue it on the ends and you got a hat. You can get some really thin elastic to help hold the hat on, I didn't need it the hats stayed on pretty good. I might add the string later.
 
 
***************************************************************************
 
How to make the Blow Horns:
 
 
 
You need some streamer, scissors, a template (we just cut the Party Hat Template in half) and some colored paper for the base of the Blow Horn.
 
 
 
This is how it will look!

 
Cut some stream about 6 in long

 
Fold it in half

 
Then in half again

 
Then start cutting it in slits (like we did for the Pinata) don't cut to the end.

 
Then open it up and you have like a hula skirt!

 
Put some glue on the end of the template

 
This is a better picture of what we did.

 
Then stick on the hula skirt!! and press it down hard.

 
It will look like this

 
Then roll it up and it will look like this

 
Trim the ends so they aren't so long

 
This is the end product!!

 
Fluff it up and your ready to Party!!!!
 
 
 
 
Hope you enjoyed our Little Party!!!
 
Bye,
Kayla, June, Katherine, Lacey and Emily!!
