Once the tissue paper is covered in glue, place the bag on top of it directly in the paper's center. Wrap the paper up and around the base of the bag similar to how you'd wrap a gift box. Stack a few pieces of tissue paper on top of one another so that all of the edges are aligned.
Fold them in half, then in half again in the same direction, and then in half for a third time. Next, cut the folded paper into strips that are about 2 inches wide. You should end up with lots of 2-inch strips of paper folded over each other. Don't unfold them yet. Use your scissors to create fringe along one edge of each folded stack of paper strips. Fringe approximately 1 inch of paper, and leave 1 inch uncut.
Unfold all of your fringed tissue paper strips. Then, spread glue along the part that doesn't have fringe of one paper strip. Wrap the paper strip with glue around the base of the bag.
If the strip isn't long enough to wrap all the way around the bag, glue on another strip to fill in the space. Continue attaching tissue paper to the bag in the same manner, overlapping layers of fringe so the uncut portion of each strip is hidden. Wrap the bag in this way until you reach the top.
If you're using a paper lunch bag, punch two holes in the top of the bag with your hole punch. For a larger grocery bag, punch a few extra holes. Cut a length of twine or thin rope, and weave it through the holes you punched in the bag. I hope you find a use for this idea in the future, Ashley. There are always more parties to plan, right? Or, how cool would it be to have a random pinata on a Saturday, just for fun!
This turned out amazing, I love how you show the step by step pictured so we could see it come to life. I could totally see making one of these for one of my kiddos future parties! We are always lacking in games for the kids to play, and a pinata would be fantastic!
Thanks for the tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing. I used card stock, and it is turning out great, fun to make and very affordable, thanks for the idea! Hello, My son is four years old.
I am wondering if cardboard from a diaper box would be hard to destroy for him and his friends. Does it end up opening at the seams? The diaper box cardboard IS really strong. You could use standard cardboard instead. Hi Christina! Your email address will not be published.

Take a strip of newspaper, dip it into the flour glue, and then use your fingers to remove excess liquid from it. Lay this flat onto the cardboard box. Continue laying strips onto the box with this method, in a criss-cross fashion. Cover the entire box in this manner, and then allow it to dry completely before adding another layer.
Let the box dry thoroughly.
