Craftykins // DIY Jumbo Geometric Confetti

By Jenny Smith, Contributor Leave a Comment

Confetti 3a

I’m always on the lookout for quick, fun and easy crafts to do with Carter. I came across this super easy DIY for geometric confetti and thought, “Hmm, this would make a big mess (yet easy enough to clean up). Carter’s going to love it!”

Here are the simple steps:

Gather up some tissue paper (colour of your choice) and stack them on top of each other. Line them up so that the edges are square (I had to trim the tissue a bit to achieve this).

Cut them into about 2″ wide strips. They don’t have to be perfect, I just eyeballed it.

Once you have your strips, start cutting them into triangles.  Again, they don’t have to be perfect.

See, I told you it was super easy!

You can store them in a mason jar if you choose.

Or not.

Now for the fun part! Toss them up in the air and go “Weeeeeeeeeee!”

      Thanks Jane! Glad you like it. I’m sure Malik will love tossing it around and I’m pretty sure he’ll try to eat it like Carter too. Haha. xx

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
