Process
Step 1. Fold and cut
The first thing you should do is arrange the papers one on top of the other, taking care that they are even from all sides. Take one of the lateral ends and fold all the papers, marking the fold very well. Release this fold and use the sewing machine to put about three hooks (one above, one in the middle and one below), inside the area marked by the fold. From the other end (the one you didn’t put hooks on), start snipping strips into the paper. Make it up to the fold mark where the hooks are. Repeat this action several times. Once you’ve finished these cuts, you’ll have a skirt-like figure.
Step 2. Paste
Take the glue and spread it on the strip covered by the fold (where the hooks go). Place the cigarette at one of the ends and start rolling it around this strip, turning it around so that it adheres to the glue and forms the pompom. Do this action until you reach the other end and voila, this easy craft is finished. You can also line the straw with colored paper if you like it better.
