Do you ever begin a craft project with a concept in mind only to find that it quickly transforms into something entirely new?That’s how these simple, quick fireworks rings got their start.Lovey said, “Yay! ” as I was getting materials ready for another project.Are we making rings that sparkle?!?”I could not say no.
We stopped working on the project I had planned and spent some time dressing up our day.It turns out that they make adorable jewelry that can be worn to New Year’s Eve fireworks shows or Fourth of July parties and other patriotic events.
To make our fireworks rings we used red and silver tinsel stems. For each ring we used three whole stems. We cut them in half to make 6 pieces of equal length.
To make one ring, gather five of the stems and fold them in half. Leave enough of a circle to fit the child finger. You may need to shape it into a circle a bit. Then wrap the sixth stem around a couple of times to secure the ring. Be sure the ends lay flat so they don’t poke the child’s finger.
Turn the ring so the loose ends face up and bend them slightly into the shape of a burst of fireworks. Leave the stems raised enough so they aren’t poking into the child’s hand.
Repeat and make fireworks rings in all of your favorite colors.
Extend the fun with these fireworks rings, and try some process art with this fun fireworks art project.
