DYI CARTON PULL RINGS -- CUTE, FUN, THRIFTY AND GREEN!

I honestly cannot take credit for this idea, my buddy over at Our Hope is in the Lord found this idea somewhere - I do not know where. We decided to make them with our girls. Her 6 year old daughter did a fantastic job while my 2 year old daughter just wanted to play in the glitter, opening up the tops and dumping the glitter out. She had fun anyways and so did I making these rings for her!

Materials:
pull ring from almond milk or carton containers
glue
glitter
accents (rhinestones, etc.)

Decorate the circle portion of the pull ring but using Elmer's glue and then sprinkling or dipping the ring in glitter.




Cute, fun, thrifty and recycling! Can't get any better than that!
