Abstract
A novel design and method of manufacturing confetti uses an interior cutout type die-cutting process. The resulting die cut confetti has unique and unusual aerodynamic features creating visually pleasing flight patterns. The predominant descent pattern of this new confetti is a hover action. The confetti rocks slightly back and forth during its descent but primary remains parallel to the ground.
Claims20
A piece of confetti comprising a piece of tissue paper of between eight to eighty pound basis weight, wherein said tissue paper has an interior opening and an exterior cutout shape, wherein said exterior cutout shape has a width of about 0.5 cm to 2.5 cm.
A piece of confetti comprising a piece of tissue paper of between eight to eighty pound basis weight, wherein said tissue paper has an interior opening and an exterior open-ended die cutout shape, wherein said exterior cutout shape has a width of about 0.5 cm to 2.5 cm, wherein said open-ended die cut tissue paper has an aerodynamic hovering action of virtually no flipping or fluttering.
A piece of confetti comprising a piece of tissue paper of between eight to eighty pound basis weight wherein said tissue paper has an interior opening and an exterior open-ended die cutout shape, wherein said exterior cutout shape has a width of about 0.5 cm to 1 cm, wherein said open-ended die cut tissue paper has an aerodynamic hovering action which oscillates slightly during descent while remaining primarily parallel to the ground.
