How-To

Cut Paper Valentine's Day Rosettes

Step 1
Cut a long piece of colored paper in an 11″ x 3″ strip, then draw and score lines every 1/2″. Fold back and forth on the lines for the entire length of the paper until it looks like an accordian.

Step 2
Now, tie a knot in the center of the folded paper with your string. Stick a small strip of double sided tape onto each side of the accordion. Open up the rosette so that the opposing sides meet and stick together, forming a circle.
