Supplies

- recyclable paper bag
Instructions
Step 1: Cut along one edge of the paper bag and trim the bottom.
Step 2: Detach the bottom part.
Step 3: Cut along the crease to create two sheets of paper of the same size.
Step 4: Remove the handles from the bag, or they will get in the way.
Step 5: We’ll start by folding the sheet in half vertically.
Step 6: Draw two sides of a triangle, with the tip of the triangle at the center crease.
Step 7: Cut along the lines you’ve drawn. You should end up with a sheet that resembles a triangle on top of a rectangle.
Step 8: Starting from one side of the rectangle, begin to fold it in an accordion style.
Step 9: Once you have completed all the folds, take a rubber band and secure the end with a knot.
And that’s it. The result is absolutely stunning.
You can hang these on a wall in the living room or bedroom. They make perfect wall decor at a minimal cost.
