Fireworks made by combining rings
Delicate lines are beautiful! Here’s an idea for fireworks made by combining rings.
Fireworks are known for their loud sounds and dazzling dynamism, but they also carry a fleeting quality as they vanish quickly.
This time, how about creating delicate fireworks by assembling fine rings? You’ll need three sheets of holographic origami paper, scissors, a backing board, and glue or double-sided tape.
Using origami in similar tones works well, but finishing it in colorful hues is lovely too.

You can find colorful origami paper at 100-yen shops, so look for colors you like and give it a try!

Cute designs that catch the eye! Here are ideas for fireworks made with nine sheets of origami.
Even if you want to make fireworks, you might feel unsure because there are so many methods to choose from.

Since you assemble the parts and stick them together to finish, it seems like a fun project to try with children.
Fireworks made by cutting and pasting

Fireworks – aiko
A perfect first craft project using scissors! Here’s a fireworks craft idea made by cutting and pasting.
As summer approaches, many preschools and homes may be working on projects with various seasonal motifs.
How about trying a fireworks craft where you create the parts with a single snip of the scissors? You’ll need a circular base sheet, glue or double-sided tape, holographic origami paper, and child-safe scissors.
If caregivers or teachers pre-cut the origami paper into narrow strips and the child cuts them in half, that cutting step can become a valuable time spent crafting together.
After that, simply stick the pieces onto the base to complete your fireworks!

Giant Fireworks Made with Rings
A striking finish! Here’s an idea for creating giant fireworks using paper rings.

It’s an idea that will likely delight people who enjoy focused, hands-on crafting and those who love glamorous decorations.
When gluing, the key is not to use too much glue!
