What you’ll need:
  • Toilet paper tubes.
  • Tissue paper or wrapping paper in red, white and blue colors.
  • Cardboard, cut into narrow rectangles.
  • Curling ribbon.
  • Tape.
Instructions:
  1. Wrap the toilet paper tubes and cardboard rectangles with the tissue paper.
  2. Fold the rectangles in half, forming a point at the top, and insert into the tubes, with the pointed end sticking out of the top.
  3. Tape the top ends of several lengths of ribbon into the bottom ends of the tubes, so the remaining ribbon dangles out of them.
  4. Loop a ribbon for hanging the firework decoration through the pointed end on top.
