Project Instructions

To help visualize folds, download and print instructions below.

Fold one paper square in half to form a triangle. Fig.1. 

With folded edge on bottom and tip of triangle on top, fold side corners up to meet the top tip of triangle. This should form a diamond shape. Fig. 2

Fold one side flap in half lengthwise by matching the folded edges. Fig. 3 Repeat on other side.

Open up both side flaps. Fig. 4

Fold flap tip down to make a crease, then fold back to tuck into flap. Repeat on other side. Fig. 5

Fold flap in on middle crease. Repeat on other side. Fig. 6

Bring side flaps together and secure with glue, this will form a cone shape (one petal). Fig. 7 You will need 60 petals for this project.

You will glue 5 petals together to form one flower. Fig.8 Start by gluing one petal together at their creases. Continue to add on one petal at a time, allowing glue to dry between each addition. Repeat to create 12 flowers.

Glue 6 flowers together to create a dome. Fig. 9

Glue ribbon to the flat side of one dome for decoration and to hang from.

Glue 2 domes together.
