2 Cut eight straws in half and glue between each existing straw. These straws will sit about 2cm longer than the first set. Allow the glue to dry before spraying the straws with bronze metallic paint.
3 Once dry, adhere a navy straw between each bronze straw to complete the design. Next, cut a 9cm circle of glitter card and fix over the centre of the sunburst to finish.
