DIY Valentine Sparkle Wand

Hello Owlettes, I hope you are all doing well! I am in a full-blown Valentine mood!! Bring on all the pinks , reds, and hearts! I think this could be one of my favorite holidays!! In today’s video, we are making wands! We will be making these at the “Play All Day” event I’m having in a couple of weeks! For the wands I used clear plastic Christmas Ornaments. I have seen these all over Instagram and they work for any occasion.. Christmas, Halloween, Birthday…endless possibilities. The clear ornaments, we picked up over Christmas, but the straws I used for the handles can be purchased on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Dakoufish-Reusable-Plastic-Drinking-transparent/dp/B01H3KX8LW/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3NDYH1HMSBXR8&keywords=pink+striped+plastic+straws&qid=1706574650&sprefix=pink+striped+plastic+straws%2Caps%2C1044&sr=8-2

Mrs. Claus “Fun and Frugal” Christmas Wand

Hello Owlettes, Happy December 1st! We must start off the month with a whimsical wand.

In today’s video, we will be creating a wand to match YOU! I am thinking of Mrs. Claus and am making mine using a velvet poinsettia with lots of sparkle and lace! Anything goes!!
