You will need: 3 colors of tissue paper, scissors, 1 pipe cleaner, a ruler and a pencil.
Choose three colors and lay them flat one on top of the other. Measure 5 inches from the side and the top to make a square and cut it out.
Fold about a half inch and again and again like an accordion as shown. Then fold in half and cut a round corner.
