Make paper chains
Diwali is that time of year when markets get flooded with decorations. You could buy them or perhaps try and make them on your own.
All you need is: 1. Crepe paper or Glossy paper.
2. Scissors.
3. Colours.
4. Adhesive.
Step 1: Take a sheet of paper, nine inches square. Fold it diagonally into two. You will get a triangle like the one in the illustration. Step 2: With the help of scissors, make cuts as shown in the figure. Remember to keep two things in mind: * The cuts should not reach from one side to the other. * You should make cuts in alternate directions.
Step 3: Now, open the sheet out flat and make a second one exactly like it but of a different colour. Step 4: Stick the two sheets together by dabbing some adhesive on the corners.
Step 5: Now, gently draw out the paper by pulling at the center of both sides. You will have a nice chain. Make a dozen of these and you can hang them all over.
