These Mardi Gras cup shakers are fun to make and produce a satisfyingly loud noise for your Mardi Gras parade! Our photo of the craft is a little old, but it really did sparkle when we made it!
You will need:
2 polystyrene cups
Green and purple paint
Dried beans or rice
Gold star stickers
Sticky tape
Instructions:
Paint one cup purple and one green.
Leave to dry and then decorate with stickers.
Fill one cup about 1/3 full of rice or bean. Turn the other cup upside down and tape securely together.
Shake and enjoy!
