- 6" Tulle (the kind that comes on a spool)
- 6" wide piece of scrap cardboard or plastic (for this project, used a 6" ruler )
- String or
- thread or
- ribbon
- Neutral thread, clear thread, or fishing line
Cut a length of tulle approximately 8 feet long. You could also cut more (fluffier fireworks) or less (thinner fireworks)
Wrap the tulle around the cardboard / plastic.
Slip the tulle off the cardboard / plastic.
From the top and bottom edges, gather the tulle. Tie your string/thread/ribbon around the center and pull tight and tie.
Cut the folded edges of the tulle to separate the layers.
Separate the layers to start making the firework. As you fluff, cut into the tulle to help make it more poofy.
Ta da! For the Fourth of July, these were made in red, white, and blue.
