How to Make Fun New Year’s Eve Noisemakers

New Year?s Eve is just around the corner, why not start the year off right with homemade fun New Year ?s Eve noisemakers. They?re environmentally friendly because you?ll be repurposing things you likely already have around the home, they?re cost effective and they?re festive.
Here are a few noisemaker ideas you can make at home.
Shaker Noise Makers
Ingredients:
* Cans or plastic cups. Baking soda cans are ideal for this because they have a nice tight plastic lid and the can is much noisier than a plastic cup. This is the one time noisier is better. Soda cans work well too.
* Masking tape or duct tape
* Beans or macaroni noodles
* Construction paper
* Markers and/or crayons
* Glue
Glue the paper around the cup or can and let dry. Decorate the paper however you desire. Fill the can with your noisy items of choice. If you?re using a soda can, you?ll want to tape over the mouth of the can. If you?re using a baking soda can, you can glue the lid on. Voila! You have some really noisy noisemakers.
Paper Plate Noise Makers
Paper plates are great because they?re easy to decorate and you likely already have a few around the house. You?ll also need:
* Small bells, beans, beads, or those macaroni noodles
* Glue or thread to seal the plate closed
* Markers, stickers, paint, construction paper and other items to decorate the plates with
* Binder clips or large paper clips to hold the plate closed while the glue dries

Step One: Fold the plate in half and then unfold. Folding it in half shows you where the seam is so you can see what it will look like once you?ve decorate it. Decorate the paper plate. In addition to decorating it, you can add fringe on the edge by cutting strips of construction paper and gluing them to the edge of the plate.
Step Two: Fold the plate in half and sew or glue closed, leaving a bit of room to insert your noise makers. Finish gluing or sewing closed.
Step Three: Hold the ends closed with binder clips or large paper clips until dry.
Step Four: Shake and enjoy!

Happy New Years!
