Mustache Party Straws

This party project shows you how to make your own fun Mustache straws - perfect for kids parties or DIY party favors.

What you need

Moustache Rub-ons
Paper Striped Straws
Light Colored or Clear Overlays (I used Grandmas Wallpaper)
Staples/Stapler
Glue Dots or other adhesive

Instructions

Step 1: Cut your overlay into 6″ x 1.25″ strips. Also cut apart the mustaches you want to use.

Cut Overlay

Step 2: Rub mustaches on the right side of the overlay & cut loosely around the mustache shape.

Rub Overlay

Here’s what your mustache should look like. You want about a 2″ strip on the left side of the mustache to wrap around the straw. Make sure that strip is about .625″ tall so there is room for the staple.

Finished Mustache

Step 3: Place a glue dot on the straw (this way the mustache doesn’t slip down the straw) and wrap the overlay around the straw and staple. (A long stapler works best, not the small one I have in the photo).

That’s it! These are fun & easy to make. Perfect for your Holiday parties!!
