Method
Display Lady’s Guide to making the foil fireworks:
Step one:
Firstly, measure and cut your paper whatever the diameter fan you want that’s your width and the 1.5 times that is the length you need.

Step two:
The second step is to fold like a fan one way and then back over the other way
Step three:
When you finish, fold in half, re-open and stable as perpendicular as you can get in your middle fold line
Step four:
Open out and staple/ glue the ends together
Step five:
Repeat for the other half of the fan!
If you make a large one you can do it with 1 piece for example my large ones are 19 inches X 29 inches and I didn’t need to do it twice.
Finally:
Attach them to black mounting paper on the wall and arrange them into a nice display.
Use chalk pens and extra lights for the sparkle effect
