My daughter has been doing a lot of crafts in her school. One of them was a simple fan that had two sticks with which you could open or close the fan. With regular use it tore off and she asked me to do another one. I thought how about make it a little different this time.
You need the following things:
1. Two Colored papers of 60cm x 10cm and 6cm x 6cm
2. An A4 size sheet
3. Thread
4. Straw
5. Sticky Tape
6. Glue
1. Take the 60cm x 10cm colored paper and form 1/2inch accordion pleats with it to form the fan shape.
When you fold the above pleats together you will be able to form a fan shape.
2. At the two ends of the fan stick a thread with glue on the back side.
3. Take the A4 sheet paper and taking the straw or a pencil shape as reference roll the paper to form a tube. Trim the ends. The ends of the folded fan will be put through this tube so make sure it will go through.
4. Take the 6cm x 6cm colored paper and using the above tube roll the paper to form a slightly bigger size tube.
The size should be such that the white tube will go through the purple tube.
5. Now that all the elements are done, lets arrange them. Take the fan and fold it. Push the end which does not have the threads inside the white tube. Put glue at the end to make sure the fan wont come out.
6. Next take the purple tube and push it through the white tube. Pull both the threads towards the purple tube and stick them to it using a sticky tape.
That's it, your magic paper fan is ready. Check it out in action!!!
Hope you liked it. Please do make your own and enjoy.
