Directions:
It was very easy, took a bit of time, but mindless work, definitely doable if you plan accordingly. I bought a round piñata from the party store. All I could get was a basket ball. Due to the bright orange color, I removed as much of the tissue as I could. Then I covered it myself with the aqua/blue tissue.
I cut sheets of tissue the long way into approx. 2.5 inch wide strips. Next I cut those strips into fringe. I layered multiple sheets at a time when cutting to save time.
Once the strips were all fringed I cut them into shorter strips, 4-6 inches long, to make them easier to apply to the piñata.
To apply, I used Elmer's glue, starting from the bottom, working my way to the top, layering the fringe. The top was a little tricky, but I just put the party hat on it while on display to cover the flaws.
As for the face, I had ordered printables, so I blew up the image of the mouth and eye and glued them on.
Good luck!
