Step Two

Stretch the top of the balloon over one end of your roll and secure with tape. 

Step Three

Decorate your cardboard tube, use felt or coloured card. You can even add some little trotters!

Step Four

Fill your tube with confetti pieces or some scrap pieces of paper.

Step Five

Using a piece of tissue paper that covers the tube hole, draw a pig face and secure it with an elastic band. This will keep your confetti pieces secure until you're ready to fire!
