Step 1

Take a portrait sheet of card and draw a vertical line 2.5cm from one side of the card.

Step 2

Fold the card back on itself along this line. Continue folding the card back and forth to create a concertina/accordion fold.

Step 3

Fold the card in half along the long edge, applying pressure to get a crisp edge. Use tacky glue to attach the inner edges of the card together to form a fan shape.

 

Tip: Allow plenty of time for the glue to dry!

 

Once the glue is dry, use a hole punch to create a hole at each end of the fan through one layer of the card, approximately 2cm in from the edge.

Step 4

Repeat with the other colours of card until you have enough fans for your desired length of bunting. Thread twine through the holes in the fans to string them together.
