Confetti
How to choose confetti
Start with sub type. Party & Celebration covers throws, Party Supplies covers table bits, Arts & Entertainment covers craft shapes.
Material decides if a venue accepts it. Biodegradable paper, wood, or water soluble passes, while gold, acrylic, or metal might fail.
Colour runs from pink to black. Metallic gold or silver looks different to matte cardstock, so check swatches.
Cleanup matters. Water soluble or petal breaks down, but polymer clay stays and must be gathered.
Choose ready made packets or loose material. One saves effort, the other gives exact control.
What's good
- Biodegradable petal and paper confetti in Party & Celebration meets strict venue eco policies.
- Acrylic and metal pieces under Arts & Entertainment survive multiple events, so you decorate again.
- Water soluble confetti washes away with a hose, sparing you sweeping the lawn.
- Cardstock and tissue ranges in Party Supplies span ten colours, including gold, grey, and red.
- Ready filled throw packs skip the step of scooping loose petals into cones.
Things to watch
- Dried flower and paper petal types fade if stored in a steamy utility room.
- Polymer clay and metal stock is not biodegradable, ruling it out for green weddings.
- Tissue paper table scatter (Party Supplies) goes flat under a centrepiece.
- Water soluble material comes in fewer cutter shapes than wood or cardstock.
- Loose refill bags demand you portion out each throw before the doorbell rings.
Care & maintenance
Store paper, tissue, and glassine wrapped confetti in a dry drawer to prevent curl.
Keep wood or dried petal material away from damp to avoid mould spots.
Wipe acrylic, metal, or polymer clay pieces with a wet cloth, then air dry for reuse.
Seal water soluble packs tight, because humidity begins the melt early.
