How do you get the confetti to look all unwrinkly?

Just pick out the pieces you want, spread them out flat, and put something heavy on them for a while.

Ah okay. I'll do that sometime. I heard that someone ironed them and I wasn't really sure if that worked or not....

OH. MY. GOD. Tracie I love the Xyloband acting as a collar. I'd try that on one of my cats, but they're all destructive and crazy and will probably chew it up!

Anyway, with my confetti... well, I was originally thinking of framing it with my ticket stubs and setlist too, but I'm not sure yet because my boyfriend is NOT a fan and I don't know how he would feel about any more Coldplay stuff hanging on the walls. lol. so I'm trying to think of a more subtle way I can display it in the house.

If and when I do something with it, I'll post a photo of the results here

I wouldn't leave the cats unsupervised wearing the wristbands, since they have lots of tiny wires in them. But it's a great photo op!

That's so cool looking

I think each of the individual confettis have been laminated too! Click on her blog for a closer look.

Thank you for posting this! This is my creation, and I'm really excited to see that people like it!
Here's how I did it:
-First, iron all the confetti that you will be using. Works like a charm!
-Then I laminated the confetti and put multiple pieces on one lamination sheet, then cut each one out.
-Then I sewed strips of about 6-7 pieces together, just sewing in a straight line, leaving space between each one.
-I left some extra length on the thread so that I could tie the thread onto a metal rim I bought ($3 at Michaels) Or you can also use an upside down lampshade.
-Evenly place them onto the metal rim, and your chandelier is done!

Thanks again, guys!

Well, during the holidays I got my hands on a laminating-machine and this is what "happened"

So now I just have to decide what to do with them.
