Attach the mask to a popsicle stick or a plastic stick from a party supply store
For added sparkle, glue on some sequins or glitter around the eyes
Optional: Attach some pink feathers around the edges for extra flair

These masks are ideal for tropical-themed birthday parties, summer barbecues, or as props for silly family photos. Why not make a whole flock and have a flamingo parade?
