How to Make It:

  1. Cut twenty to thirty 10-inch-long strands of gift-wrap ribbon. (If using wide ribbon, cut into quarter-inch-wide strips.)

  2. Holding all of the strands together, twist one end tightly. Add a few drops of glue and push the twisted end about a half-inch into one end of a straw. Let it dry.

  3. For extra sparkle, dab glue onto the straw and sprinkle glitter on it.
