subject: Involve Kids In A Mardi Gras Celebration With Fun Homemade Mardi Gras Party Supplies And Decorations [print this page] Mardi Gras is a time for fun, so get ready with masks and banners, hats and beads, and other Mardi Gras party supplies and mardi gras party decorations.
Mardi Gras Masks: Mardi Gras masks can be made using white, purple, green, gold, or black paper plates. Various arts and crafts items, such as feathers, glitter, beads, paint, and more can be used to enhance the designs of masks. Cut out the pattern of the mask and cut out (do not forget the eyes). Kids will have a ball decorating their own Mardi Gras masks using crafting glue, feathers, glitter, and beads. Use a wooden dowel and tape it to the side of the mask. Those who wish to wear their masks can punch holes in the sides of the mask or staple elastic thread to the sides. Check out other original Mardi Gras masks to find designs that might be copied. Some Mardi Gras masks are simple while other masks are bright, bold, with large feathers and gems attached.
Mardi Gras Hats: Mardi Gras Hats, or King and Queen crowns can be made cutting out sections of the crowns on construction paper. Make a fancy crown template, cut it out, and then tape together the matching ends. Use alternative colors such as green, purple, and gold. Print out three versions of the same crown, and cut out each color of crowns and tape together. Add craft beads, glitter, Mardi Gras text (cut the text out separately from the crown and glue on).
Mardi Gras Banners: Mardi Gras banner is very simple to make. First, print out Mardi Gras text or Mardi Gras masks in purple, green, and gold colors (use gold metallic paper or yellow paper). Carefully cut out the letters after they are printed. Punch holes in the corners of the Mardi Gras text and secure by tying a single ribbon or multiple ribbons through the holes. Even Mardi Gras text is worthy of fancy decorations.
Mardi Gras Centerpieces: Place various Mardi Gras items such as Mardi masks with dowels, balloons, feathers, floral sprays, and deco mesh in a vase or container. Keep the Mardi Gras centerpiece green, gold, and purple in colors. Create an interesting composition with the arts & crafts materials to make a one-of-a-kind Mardi Gras centerpiece. Another option is to use existing Mardi Gras centerpiece and add personal touched to the Mardi Gras centerpieces as well.
Simple Mardi Gras party supplies and decorations are very easy to make and whole lot of fun to do so. Encourage children to participate in the fun with homemade masks and other Mardi Gras party decorations.
