Let's Get Started
STEP 1
Paint the craft roll with glitter glue or sparkly paint, and then let it dry.
STEP 2
Combine red, orange and yellow tissue paper sheets together to create a single stem at one end and flames at the other.
STEP 3
Once the craft roll is dry, insert the tissue paper stem into one end of the roll.
STEP 4
Add a little bit of glue on the inside of the roll to keep the tissue stem in place, and then let it dry.
