We first made these in order to have our own second line tribute to Dr. John at his passing June 2019, but it's also a fun activity for jazz fest, or a tribute to anyone where a second line is in order.
other glue-able items you may have around: felt pieces, googlie eyes, buttons, ... get creative!)
tools
glue (glue gun is best, but use what you have)
scissors
permanent markerswork best for vivid color but crayola works
Instructions
Prep: Clear a spot on a table or floor, and consider covering the area with newspaper or cut up trash bags, especially if you are using permanent markers.
Decorate: First step is coloring the parasol w/ permanent markers to make a base, then glue lots of bits on as you see fit!
Embelish: stringing beads to hang off the edges because the more they sway when you dance, the more fun your second line umbrella will be.
