Tonya here… St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, and if you are looking for a fun party idea, then I’ve got the perfect thing for you, mini pull-string rainbow piñatas.

DIY St. Patrick's Day Mini Rainbow Piñatas

These rainbow pinatas with a pot of gold are perfect for classrooms, to fill with candy for your own children, or to hand out at your St. Patrick’s Day party.

What you need:

  • Cardboard box
  • Crepe paper streamers – purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, black, and gold
  • Packaging tape
  • Glue stick
  • String
  • Scissors and a box cutter
  • Candy, or other fun St. Patrick’s Day treats such as tattoos, stickers, green balloons, and more.

Step 1: Sketch your mini rainbows and pots of golf onto the cardboard and cut them out. You will also need to cut strips of cardboard approximately 2.5 inches wide.

Step 3: Cut a flap in the bottom of the rainbow (underneath where the pot of gold will be).

Step 4: Cut strips of crepe paper streamers, and then cut a fringe into each. Beginning from the bottom, and then working toward the top, attach the crepe paper streamers using the glue stick.

Step 6: Poke a hole into the flap underneath the pinata, and tie string onto it. Fill your pinata with treats, and then close the flap.
