A white and red garland

You will need red and white square sheets of paper for this garland.
The size of the squares is at your wish. We used A4 sheets, and made two squares from every sheet. Each square is folded
in an accordion, ent in the middle and then glued to the ne!t square. Alternate red and white colours.
This activity can be practised in a large group. Each kid can prepare his/her element and then it will be added to the joint
garland:)
"t is eautiful oth hanging or suspended.

Heart"!haped po"po
The design depends on the way you trim the pom/pom(3
We decided to cut it in the shape of a heart and the result was this cute martenitsa nec*lace. You have to e very smart with
the scissors to ma*e you heart loo* really good.
#o this craft is not that easy to ma*e, as " usually use to say
8a*e to pom/pom, ut ma*e sure that a lot of thread has to e trimmed in order to ma*e a eautiful shape.
&oll enough tread on a thic* piece of cardoard paper 2we used a hard cover notepad3.
&un a strong string through the centre of the pom/pon, loop it twice and pull down tight.
1irst start with the classic shape of the heart.
After that start ma*ing the heart ushy on the front and ac* side, and trim it with the scissors.

Als ich mein Projekt DIY Paper Diamonds gepostet habe, hatte ich Ideen, was man mit dieser
Falttechnik alles machen kann.
Daraus entstand dieser Sternenhnger.
Ich habe die ilder !on meinem DIY Paper Diamonds Post erweitert.

$$. Schneide die +cken ab
$%. Falte die +cken nochmal ein, damit es 4berall ge"altet ist
$5&$'. 3ichtig ist, spter bei dem % Diamond dieselben +cken 0u nehmen "4r das Falten,
weil sonst die Diamonds unterschiedlich sind und nicht 4bereinander passen
$(&$). Die +cken werden reinge"altet, alle in dieselbe 6ichtung
is hierhin ist das dieselbe Falttechnik wie bei meinem DIY Paper Diamonds
Ab hier ndert sich die Falttechnik
$*&$-. 7et0t werden alle acht Seiten an den eben gemachten Faltlinien gan0 ein"ach nach
