I recently decided that I loved these block so much that I am manufacturing them to sell in a craft kit!
Buy Now
Make it yourself:
- Red, White and Blue acrylic paint
- 3 paint brushes
- drill
- Firework Blocks Craft Kit (has everything else included!)
- In the tops of each block of wood drill a small hole about 1/2 inch deep into the block. This will enable you to easily place the wire “wicks” into your fireworks.
- Paint each block and the star the colors of your choosing.
- While waiting for the blocks to dry, take your wire and wrap it around a pencil 4-5 times to create the “swirly” tops.
- Once blocks are dry insert wire “wick”.
- Place star in the location you want it and then tie it onto the blocks with the twine several times. Tie a knot in the back to keep the twine in place.
**TIP: To keep the blocks secure and in place you can glue them to each other. You can also glue the star where you want it as well.**

I’m dropping by from the Home Matters Linky Party. This is such a cute idea — one that looks really easy to do. (That’s the crafts that I can do best!) Thanks so much for sharing it.
I’m trying to grow a link party of my own and I invite you to share this idea (and a couple of others) at my Grandma Ideas Sharing Time link party at http://grandmaideas.com. I think that my readers would really enjoy this idea!
My link up closes at midnight tonight — hope you can make it there on time!
All the best,
Nina

I have tons of scrap wood. I’m going to try and find something I can use or cut to make this! Love it!

They don’t sell the kits for these anywhere- what are the measurements for the wood blocks so I can try and cut my own?
