The supplies you are going to need to make the pretty dove ornament are:
- White Index Cards
- White Paper
- A Gold Pen
- Glue
- Ribbon
- A Hole Puncher
- Scissors
- A crafty person like you!
- The first step to making a dove is drawing a dove on one of the white index cards. Before you cut it out; draw things on your dove. Maybe an eye, a beak and a pretty tail design.
- Next, you cut out your dove and cut a little slit in the middle of the dove's back. Make sure not to make the slit too large.
- Then fold your piece of paper. Fold front and back, front and back until the whole piece of paper is folded like a fan.
- For the next step, cut in the middle of the paper a semicircular edge. ( Do not unfold before cutting!!!!) This will be the wings of your dove. Now, glue all your non - semicircular edges together. Then cut a slit in the middle of the glued edges. This is a very hard step!
- Then, you put the slits together. The slits won't stay together FOREVER, so you need to glue down both of the sides of the wings to the sides of the dove.
- After you glue down your sides, fan the wings out and glue them down to the dove also.
- Finally, punch a hole into the top of the wing with your hole puncher. Then cut some ribbon about 7 inches long. Take your ribbon and put it through the hole and make a knot at the top of the ribbon.
