PAPER BRACELET

PINWHEEL

MATERIALS REQUIRED
Construction paper, wire, bead or rubber that can be used as a stopper, pencil or wooden stick
PROCEDURE•Take your square construction paper and draw a diagonal from the top left corner to the bottom right corner and from the top right corner to the bottom left corner.
•Make a hole in the center. Use a compass and draw a circle around the center point that measures about 3 cm. Cut each of the lines from the corner to the circle.
•Punch a small hole on the side of each corner as shown in the picture.
•Coil your wire around the wooden stick. Attach a wooden ball to the wire and then insert the wire through small hole in the center of your paper
•Start with one corner and bend the paper over so that the wire can be inserted into the punched hole. Continue this with each of the 3 other corners.
•This is how the pinwheel looks once all of the ends are attatched to the center. Use your hand to hold it together until the next step is completed.
•Add a punched out motif to the center if desired and then another wooden ball or bead or rubber. Use the pliers to bend the remaining wire over into a loop so that the wire is secure. If done correctly the pinwheel can now spin in a breeze. If it gets caught on the stick, you may need to bend the wire some until it is sitting correct and can turn freely.

•To make one fan shaped piece, stack three pieces of the different shades of paper one above the other.
•The smaller size of paper should be on top. Make accordion pleats i.e small pleats of equal width at equal distance.
•Hold the pleated papers together and staple in the center. Make a number of fan shaped pieces in the same manner and keep aside two of them.
•Join the remaining pieces together with glue to form a chain.
•The two pieces kept aside can be used as the end pieces
•The same chain can be pulled into a circle to form a decorative star design. The ends of the fan shaped pieces which forms the inner layer of the circle can be glued together to form the design as shown in figure. Five fan shaped pieces are needed to form a small star shaped design.

• Optional: Other colors of construction paper, glue, hole punch, stickers
PROCEDURE
• Fold a piece of green construction paper in half, then cut it in half.
• Put the two pieces together, and fold them in half again.Draw half a Christmas tree opposite the fold
• Cut along the line - you should get two identical trees.
• Fold the trees in half, just barely creasing the center line (this is to mark the center of the tree).
• Cut a slit along the bottom half of the center of one tree and along the top half of the center of the other tree.
• Slip the two trees together along the slits.
• Using clear tape, tape the bottoms and tops together (pieces of tape on the bottom and at the top make the tree stand up well and stop the slit ends from flopping over).
• Decorate your tree with crayons, markers, glitter glue, or tempera paint. Or you can glue on tiny construction paper decorations or use star stickers. You can cut out tiny paper balls using a hole punch.
• Now you have a really nice 3-dimensional Christmas decoration.
• Optional: cut out a small construction paper star and cut a tiny slit in it. Put the star on the top of the tree (and secure it with some tape).
For a bigger tree: Start with two pieces of green construction paper, and fold them so they make a long, thin rectangle. Draw a tree opposite the fold. The rest of the instructions are the same

Paper Quilling
