Cake toppers are my favorite. You can take a completely boring cake and make it into something unique and colorful, and, no one wants a boring cake for their birthday. I am super excited to share TWO fun DIY straw cake toppers. They are inexpensive and give such a fun and playful look to any birthday cake.
DIY Straw Cake Topper Materials
- Colorful plastic straws (Mine are from IKEA)
- Scissors
- Heavy duty circle punch
- Twine
- Wood Skewers
How to Make DIY Straw Cake Toppers
- Cut up various sizes and colors of the plastic straws
- Punch holes into the straws. For the wood skewers punch the hole in the middle. If you are hanging them on the twine punch the holes toward the top.
- String the straws onto the skewers and or twine.
Now go have a party! Because these are too cute not to make!
