Confetti is simply part of the carnival! Make large confetti out of no longer needed or already collected screw glass lids. Also, the lids of tin cans (only when a can opener is used to round off the edges!) are wonderfully suitable to glue them and hang them on a cord.
A room decoration, in which the smallest ones can already co-build. The sticking on of the colorful snippets playfully promotes the fine motor skills and the concept of sustainability in the use of materials, which are actually to be thrown away, is already conveyed to the smallest ones.
See for yourself how easy sustainable crafting is!
Giant confetti from lids (upcycle)
Make confetti snake (upcycle)
Confetti are a highlight for children. Stir the colorful circles through the air during the carnival time, encourage children to move and play. This colorful confetti snake decorates every carnival party.
For our project on sustainability, we have made our confetti from colorful advertising brochures.
Here we show you how the confetti snake is created: once with a sewing machine (which is always a highlight for children - watching alone!) and a second variant with needle and thread. Have fun trying out and decorating!
Fasching jelly (upcycles)
This colourful "fasching jelly" is a colorful craft action made of sustainable materials. Uses wool remnants and an empty cardboard roll. Colorful painted this jellyfish looks even more colorful. Children who already master the handling of the scissors can diligently cut threads. For this also a ruler can be helpful for measuring the length. However, the lengths can also vary here.
A strip of double-sided adhesive tape is attached to the inside of the cardboard roll. On this the children can glue the wool threads. Length and distance of the threads play no role for the result.
At the end an adult threads a thread with a needle through the top of the cardboard roll and knots it. The jellyfish can be hung on it. In the air the wool threads move and a nice decoration is ready.
Look at the instructions and try it out yourself. Have fun!

Hanging bat (with template) (Navi)
This sweet bat finds place on a branch. It hangs through its legs of pipe cleaners. The bat makes it out of a black painted toilet roll. The wings consist of clay paper and equipped with two wobble eyes the bat is already finished. This adventure is also suitable for craft beginners.
Makes the bat for example as decoration for the next Halloween party, for carnival, children's birthday party or for the summer party in the garden. On lukewarm summer evenings fly often bats. Watch children these, this stimulates the children to craft. Have fun!
Snake garland (6 templates for garlands) (Navi)
These snakes garlands are a great occupation for children. When painting, they can be creative in color or design their own patterns in the Blanco template. Colorfully painted, you first cut the snake as a circle before cutting it spirally along the line. That's not difficult, provided you cut on the line.
As a room decoration you attach a thread in the middle of the snake or you put it as a table decoration like an air snake on the table. The perfect carnival decoration!
Tip: If you paint the snakes in green tones, then they fit for a jungle party or a children's birthday party as well. Stay creative!
Have fun trying it out!

6. Monster - rolls ready
