We can't say that black powder mixed simply to make the firework because there are different types of black powder for different products. There are different grads available their like sporting, which consist of your FG, FFG, FFFG, FFFFG Grades and so on. For blasting we use "A" grade black powders, most frequently used in fireworks. 2FA, 4FA and Meal-D, these are the grades that make it all happen so first we need to identify what is our requirement and then choose the grade accordingly.

How to make quality Black Powder

To buy commercial 2FA black powder we need a BATFE license especially when buying in bulk like 100-150 lbs at a time and it cost you really high. So instead of buying this making your own is the best cost effective way and it is also legal to make your own without an ATF license. But please make sure from your local ...
... authorities and laws because laws are pretty differ from state to state.

Fireworks show set up

It's better to set a small show or we can say a pre-show before the big grand show just to make more curiosity in to people for the main show. In the show we can set off some smoke cakes they looks really good against the twilight sky and a few parachute cakes which will give the audience specially children, something to chase and collect but as a organizer you must be careful that these parachute can't be back on earth while they have something hot inside because it may hurt your audience.

Now it's time to launch some sky lanterns at dust. They didn't take a long time only a few minutes to launch. As soon as they launched they just fly away and disappear dramatically.

We will save a lot of time, money and effort by doing these ourselves. And the best part is collecting the material and preparing your own fireworks is a great fun as well as you have control over each and everything that gives you confidence while your pyro display.
