Turn old Christmas cards into eye-catching baubles

Bauble made from Christmas cards

Instructions

From the cards, cut out 21 same-sized circles (trace around the base of a jar).

On one circle, draw an equilateral triangle, ensuring each point touches the circle’s edge, and cut out.

Trace a triangle onto the back of all remaining circles and fold along all lines.

Glue the flaps of five circles together (meeting at a central point) to form the top of the bauble; repeat to form the bottom.

Glue the remaining ten circles together so that they form a long line, then glue the ends together – this will be the bauble’s middle ring.

Glue the top and bottom to the middle ring. Pierce the bauble with a needle and thread through a thin ribbon or string.
