Step 1:
Cut out a 4-inch cardboard circle. Using the cardboard as a template, trace and
cut out 14 foil-paper circles. Fold one circle in half, in half again and in
half once more. Unfold the circle and place it on a stack of as many circles as
you can cut through. Cut along the fold lines, stopping about 1/2 inch from the
center. Repeat until all the circles are cut. |
|
Form the eight segments of each circle into points by wrapping each one around
the sharpened end of a pencil, as shown, and securing it with a dab of glue. |
|
Thread a needle with an 18-inch length of thread, and knot one end. Insert it
through the centers of the circles—from the foil side of the first seven and the
wrong side of the rest. Gently pull on the thread, bunching the circles into a
ball. Tie a knot, then form a hanging loop from the extra thread. |
