It’s time to enjoy the turkey leftovers, and after unwrapping all those gifts, a ton of paper is let over. Recycling is the way to go with most of the paper, but give yourself and family a little entertainment by having a light show in the fireplace. Safety is first. Do not do this, if you haven’t much fireplace experience. Have safety gear close by, ex: extinguishers, sand, etc. Hot paper amber’s can potentially escape the fireplace and burn things. 

Take the colorful paper, (similar colors together) and place in the fireplace. The color from the paper will change the color of the flame. Blues and greens tend to be the most prominent in changing colors. It is entertaining and a warm event for the family to partake in together.

Safety is extremely important when dealing with the fireplace. Pay attention and don’t leave it unattended, and be sure to teach the kids fire prevention and safety.
