The Truth Behind My Paper Straw Obsession

As a blogger, I've been known to collect cute little trinkets to make sure I have the perfect props for photographs... It's just part of the job. From having the perfect blanket to throw over my couch to the prettiest pack of straws to share my favorite drink recipe - I'm constantly investing in the best of the best so that I can share all of the absolute best with you. Today I want to share not only one of my favorite photography props, but something I love using when I have company over or try a new smoothie recipe - Aardvark paper straws are a new favorite for this gal!

Why do I use paper straws though? They look STUNNING in photographs of everything, from craft projects that call for a little straw action to cake pops with a cute little straw, to the obvious, showcasing a new beverage & drinking out of the straws... I'm constantly grabbing for a cute straw to amp up my projects and my photos!

That's why I'm asking for a handful of beautiful Aardvark Straws in my stocking this year! These beauties aren't just your regular ol' paper straws though, I've elevated my blogging (and sipping) game with Aardvark since they offer such a wide variety of straws and it's the only bendable paper straw on the market.

Available in more than 200 designs, including designs like holiday themes, your favorite NFL team, a wide range of stripes, and more. Not only are they adorably designed and bendable, they're sturdier than the old school paper straw. With no chlorine, these straws don't decompose or start to bleed color into your drink! Plus, if you're Eco-conscious, like I try to be, you'll be happy to find out that these straws are also better for the environment!

So tell me, now that I've shared why I love Aardvark Straws so much, which design will you add to your straw collection first?

Thanks to Aardvark for sending over these gorgeous straws to include in my Holiday Gift Guide!
