Piñata hunting trophy...

I have a slight obsession with Piñatas, I try and introduce them into any and all celebrations. Although Irish children don't initially react well to the beating of a small multi-coloured papier-maché donkey (which can only be a good thing, on reflection) as soon as the sweets pop out all bets are off. Once the party is over all that is left is a colourful massacre, I've come up with a fabulous solution.....
The Piñata hunting trophy
All that is required is some flat cardboard (I just used the wrapping from some books I ordered online)
A rescued piñata head
a pencil
some wire

1. Cut the cardboard in the shape of a plaque or shield
2. Use the wire to secure the head three quarters of the way up the plaque
3.Use the pencil to prop up the head by pushing it through the back of the plaque and under the edge of the piñata

You now are the proud owner of an animal friendly hunting trophy
