How to Make
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
- Firstly, select your favourite Christmas cards.
- Then using the circle template, draw and cut out 20 identical circles (or use a compass).
- Cut out the equilateral triangle from the template (or draw and cut out your own).
- Place the equilateral triangle in the centre of the circle and draw around it.
- Fold along the lines of the triangle asking an adult to help score across the lines will make it easier to fold. Repeat this for each circle.
- Stick the folded edges together using a glue stick. If you stick 5 together in a circle shape it’ll start to form a dome, then you can continue to form the sphere.
- Before finishing the ornament, cut a length of ribbon, tie a knot, and stick it inside.
- Continue to stick all the folded sides together until the sphere is formed.
