DIY Confetti Poppers (4th of July Edition)
These DIY Confetti poppers (4th of July Edition) are perfect for littles and adults alike. With a few supplies, you will have a festive party in no time!
We live in the city and because of that, we aren’t able to enjoy fireworks like most of America. Not to mention, we have 2 pretty wimpy dogs and 3 crazy toddlers! The DIY Confetti Poppers (4th of July Edition) are the perfect substitute for illegal fireworks. They are also a fun craft to make and the kids LOVE them!
Supplies you will need:
- Toilet Paper Roll
- Patriotic Paper
- Colorful Tape
- 12″ Balloons
- Double Sided Tape
Instructions for DIY Confetti Poppers (4th of July Edition) are simple!
- Prep by cutting the decorative paper to size of roll which is approximately 6″ x 4″.
- Tape paper onto rolls using double sided tape.
- Cut ballon and place over end of the toilet paper roll. Secure with (you guessed it) 6″ piece of tape. Tie the balloon into a knot.
- All that scrap paper, cut into tiny pieces! I have found you can also use tinsel cut up, tissue paper, etc. I love that you can basically reuse any old scrap paper!
- Stick in the poppers & Let it GO!!!!
These could be done for many occasions! I really think it would be so cute at my twins 3rd birthday to have a bunch of their friends popping these and singing “Happy Birthday”! Some others include:
- New Years
- Birthday Parties
- Gender Reveal
- Weddings
- Engagement Parties

We live in the city too and in a condo to boot! So if we want fireworks we need to drive to where it’s allowed. These are so much fun!

Make sure to make plenty of confetti!

Our dogs go crazy! It’s so tough! I like dog/kid friendly crafts 🙂

My daughter makes those all the time. She shoots all sorts of things out of toilet paper rolls. She used to shoot mini marshmallows to the dog.
