What You’ll Need:
- Strips of colored paper (yellow and white are used here, but feel free to get creative!)
- Glue or double-sided tape
- Patience and a pinch of creativity ✨
Step-by-Step Tutorial:
- Start with Strips
- Take two long strips of paper, one yellow and one white.
- Hold them together, side by side.
- Cross and Fold
- Cross the yellow strip over the white strip, creating an ‘X’ shape.
- Fold the ends of the strips back and forth to create a crisscross pattern.
- Weave and Tighten
- Continue to weave the strips over and under each other.
- Tighten the folds as you go, making sure the weave is snug but not too tight.
- Forming the Base
- Once you have a decent length, fold the ends of the strips inward.
- Secure the ends with glue or tape to form a small, tight square base.
- Building Up Layers
- Take another set of strips (same or different colors) and continue weaving them through the base.
- Fold and tighten as you go, just like before.
- Creating the Infinite Loop
- Keep adding layers, folding, and weaving until you have a long, continuous strip.
- Now, carefully twist and connect the ends to form a loop.
- Secure the connection with glue or tape.
- Final Touches
- Gently stretch and twist your loop to make sure it moves smoothly.
- Adjust any tight spots and ensure the weave is even throughout.
- Enjoy Your Creation!
- Your infinite fidget paper craft is now ready! Twist it, stretch it, and enjoy the endless fun. 🌈
