Instructions:
Step 1:
Arrange the tissue papers in this order starting from the bottom to the top: 2 greens, 2 dark pinks, 1 light pink, 2 dark pinks, 1 light pink, 1 dark pink, and 2 yellow. Use a clip to hold all papers together in one short side. Make sure the yellow papers are placed exactly at the center.
Step 2:
Holding all papers together, fold the bottom edge upwards to about 1 inch and make a crease. Flip it over and repeat on the other side. Keep folding in accordion style until you reach the other end. Once done, trim off the extra length. Press down firmly to make a sharp crease.
Step 3:
Open the folds and separate the green, pink, and yellow. Fold them back into accordion style.
Step 4:
Take the yellow paper, fold it in half, and make a sharp crease. Next, make small slits at the open edge. Fold the pink in half and make a crease. Unfold and make a “U” shape cut on one end. Next, fold it in half again and cut the other end in a “U” shape. Fold the green paper in half and make half an arc cut.
Step 5:
Unfold all the papers. Place the green on the bottom, followed by the pink, then the yellow. Make sure the edges are aligned and the yellow paper is in the center.
Step 6:
Take a wire or thread and tie it at the center. Make sure to twist the wire on the green side. Gently pull all layers in an upward direction, one layer at a time, starting on the top.
