How To Make Olaf Pinata Easy DIY Tutorial - It was my daughter's birthday few weeks ago, as you can see we had Frozen Theme for her birthday party.
I absolutely enjoyed crafting handmade decor for her party like burlap and lace birthday banner, white snowy backdrop, Frozen blue tutu skirt, but my favorite crafty project was this Olaf Pinata.
I was so proud of myself since I have never made pinatas before and when I made Olaf Pinata it made me smile to see how happy my daughter Ani was.
It is not hard to make as it seems and it cost me around $5.00 not bad compare to buying it online for $60.00.

Quote of the Day
Good morning! I have the piñata almost ready, but I don't understand where it will break and go out the candy, I want to be sure before gluing all parties! I hope you can answer soon, the birthday is tomorrow !!! thank you very much!!
Good Morning Marina! I placed candy in the stomach and when we were breaking Olaf his neck broke, so we just flipped him while kids were holding their hands to catch the candy. I hope that answers your question. I would recommend cutting out little hold on the bottom of his stomach (middle part of his body) and not gluing the bottom to much that way kids can break the bottom first then the candy can fall thru the bottom of the middle part of his body. I hope that helps.
