These DIY mini football helmets will add a fun decoration for your football party and can also be used to put on the top of your bottle so you will always know which drink is yours. You can easily make a mini football helmet water bottle craft. The helmet is cut from reused water bottles and uses inexpensive things from the craft store. Each mini helmet can be made with a unique player number also can be customized and used as fun bobblehead decorations for your favorite team.
My favorite football games in the NFL season are the playoffs. These mini football helmets would look make a fun football party decor to watch the games! They are so easy to make that once the Super Bowl teams are determined, these DIY mini football helmets can be quickly made for each of the two teams as a decoration or given as football party favors.
