Creating a confetti piñata is easy and fun; you can make it for any celebration, too, from birthdays, weddings, or parties. With this easy step-by-step guide, you can create any shape you’d like to. Here’s how to make your confetti piñata.

Easy step-by-step

Follow the steps below to create your confetti piñata:

STEP 1. Draw your desired shape on cardboard. We’ve chosen a heart shape, but you could opt for a star, circle, or even a fun geometric shape. Cut out using your Stanley knife and use it as a template to ensure both are identical.

STEP 2. Cut a long strip of cardboard 10cm in width and cellotape to one section of the shaped card.

STEP 3. Use clear tape to attach the edging to the other piece of cardboard. Make sure to leave an open section at the bottom of the piñata to add a flap that allows the confetti to drop from.

STEP 4. Cut the crepe paper to the width of the piñata and cut strips along the length of the article. Starting from the bottom, add a line of glue and a strip of crepe paper, and continue upwards. Once you’ve finished the first side, move onto the other side, then move onto the sides.

STEP 5. Cut a small piece of cardboard slightly longer than the opening at the bottom of the piñata, then glue it on. Add a small hole into the flap, thread some ribbon through it, and tie a knot in the end. Then, start adding your confetti.

We recommend our confetti as it is all-natural and biodegradable so that you can use your piñata outdoors. The confetti that falls on the floor is eco-friendly and will degrade over days, so you don’t need to clean up afterward. Please take a look at all the colors we have available.

STEP 6. Add a hole in the top of your piñata, thread some ribbon, and hang your piñata in a doorway or from a tree. Pull the bottom ribbon to open the trap door and release the confetti!
