How to Make an Award Ribbon for Dad

June 1, 2021

Supplies

  • 1 sheet of orange paper 
  • 1 sheet of peach paper 
  • 1 sheet of yellow paper blue or black marker scissors
  • glue and/or tape

Steps

  1. Fold the orange sheet of paper in half (lengthwise)
  2. Cut down the middle of the paper to make two long strips of paper
  3. Using one of the strips, make accordion folds across the entire piece
  4. Fold one accordion in half and glue together (the paper will look like a fan)
  5. Secure the last few folds by applying a dot of glue or a small piece of tape to the bottom of the fan
  6. Repeat steps 3-5 with the second strip of paper
  7. Glue the two separate pieces together to form a rosette
  8. Using the yellow paper, cut a circle smaller than the rosette; write "Best Dad Award" on the circle with marker
  9. Add glue or tape to the back of the circle, press the circle on to the rosette and allow the glue to set
  10. Cut two ribbons using the peach, then glue or tape to the back of the rosette


Note:

Alternate paper can be substituted.
