How to Make Party Confetti

Planning a party on a budget? What party would be complete without confetti? Here you will learn how to make homemade confetti!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Colored paper
• Tin foil
• Glitter
• Hole puncher
• Plastic baggies

1. Take the hole puncher and begin punching holes in the colored paper. You'll want various colors to go with your confetti, so this may take awhile. Be patient and get to punching!

2. Once you are finished with the colored paper punching, start doing the same with the tin foil. You'll only need a couple of sheets of tin foil to add to your collection of paper.

3. Empty the hole puncher into the plastic baggies.

4. With your glitter, sprinkle as much as desired into the baggies filled with your punched papers.

5. Holding the baggies closed, shake them up to mix the mixture.

6. It's confetti time!

Tips & Warnings

• Use different colors of glitter if you want more of a colorful look.
• Use more tin foil if you want more sparkle to your confetti.
• If going for a theme party, associate the theme colors with the confetti.
