Step 1 - Cut heavy duty cardboard tubing to desired sizes. I use one 8", one 12" and one 16" long.

Step 2 - Wrap the 8" and 16" tubes with Sapphire Starstruck Foiled Paper and secure with your favorite adhesive. Wrap the 12" tube with Silver Starstruck Foiled Paper and secure.

Step 7 - Cut a circle to fit the top of the tube from cardstock and Sapphire Starstruck Foiled Paper times 3. Glue each of the Sapphire circles to each of the cardstock circles.

Step 8 - Cut lots of little strips of Rinea Foiled Papers in all colors. Wrap a 2" band of Silver/Gold Glossy Foiled Paper around the bottom portion of the little strips - this will be the firecracker fuse and the strips will be the sparks.
Step 9 - Poke a hole in the Sapphire circle and insert the fuse into the hole, secure the fuse to the circle with hot glue.  Repeat this step for the other 2 circles. 

Note: I cut the length of the strips relative to the size of each firecracker...so the 8" firecracker has the shortest sparks, etc.
Step 10 - Use hot glue to secure a top/fuse to each tube.
