Who hasn't imagined being Mary Antoinette, walking through the Palace of Versailles carrying a lace fan? Well, we can't promise that you'll be tele-transported to those marvellous gardens, but at least the summer will be more bearable...

MATERIALS

APLI ice cream sticks

APLI magic hole punch

APLI universal glue

APLI adhesive tape

Cork

 

STEP 1

Take 5 or 6 ice cream sticks and perforate them with a pin in the same position as in the photo. Stick a little piece of cork with the universal glue on the other side so it doesn't come out.

Draw and cut out a semicircle as in the photo using all the stick open to trace it.

STEP 5

The only thing left to do is to mark the folds of the fan so you can close it.
