You can do-it-yourself: confetti poppers

Confetti poppers are very easy to make and can be used at weddings, birthday parties and showers. The wonderful thing about making confetti poppers yourself is that you can fill them with whatever kind and colour of confetti that you wish.

I created the labels for my confetti poppers and I've included it as a download in this post. 

If you want to make your own confetti using scraps of tissue paper, wrapping paper and mylar, like I did for my poppers, you can find my DIY confetti tutorial here. It's simple to make your own confetti and if you are planning on making a large number of confetti poppers it is a fairly cost effective option.

Gather Your Supplies: push pop containers, white paper, confetti, scissors, two-sided tape.

Step 1.  Download the labels and print out on white text paper. Using the crop marks as a guide, cut out the labels.

Step 2.  Assemble the push pop container and position the labels to the containers as shown above. Keep labels in place using two-sided tape.

Step 3.  Remove the lids. Fill the containers with either paper or flower confetti. 

Step 4.  Add lids to seal. Give the container a shake and the confetti will expand into the open space under the lid.

Dried flower petals can be used as confetti if you are looking for something a little more natural and fragrant. If you are getting married just ask your florist if this is something that they can help you with. My flowers were from Petal to the Metal.

To use poppers: Remove the lids before use. Push the stick with one quick movement to release the confetti from the push pop container. The poppers can be refilled and used over and over.

You can see my Facebook live tutorial with Weddingbells to make these here:

Here's one more idea for creating these confetti poppers using stickers instead of my labels.

I added custom stickers that were designed by Alicia's Infinity. The art on these flower confetti poppers matched Alicia's wedding stationery.
