It all starts with tissue paper....
I am really going crazy over giant decorations! Giant props, giant 36" balloons, and now giant confetti! I first read about this on THIS post on Oh Happy Day. And I have to say, I loved the idea, but didn't read about how to make it. I was wandering through JoAnn this weekend and saw Fiskars circle cutter, and I couldn't resist! I should already own this tool anyway.
I found out later that Oh Happy Day's interpretation of "giant" is a little different than mine. Her confetti is 2", and mine is about 6". And her method of making it was completely different! She used a 2" circle punch, which I tried after I finally decided to read her instruction. Maybe my 2" punch is dull, but it did not like my tissue paper. I was happy with how the circle cutter cut my tissue paper, and I love my end result!
Lastly, I was so happy with my confetti, that I made a little logo on Picnik to print onto hand made bags, which I'll fill with, what else? Giant confetti, of course.

By the way, I've shared this post on Life Made Lovely Monday!
