I have recently created some paper fans in pastel colours with wrapping paper for the talented photographer of Gretel Photography for an Easter themed photo-shooting backdrop with little kids.

I have recently shared a DIY tutorial on how to create paper fans with tissue paper here however this time I tried to create the same paper fans with wrapping paper and I was very happy with the results. Not only wrapping paper is thicker so it creates a better structure, but you also have more choices on patters and colours.

So in case you would like to try to create some paper fans on your own, here is a step by step guide to DIY. I hope you like it.

Materials

• Wrap paper on the colours of your choice
• Glue gun
• Scissors

Directions:

1. Start by folding the wrap paper every 3 cm as shown in the picture below:

2. Keep folding until all the roll is finished as below:

3. Now find the middle of the paper and fold one side on top of the other one.

4. Paste both sides together with the glue gun to form a fan shape.

5. Once pasted it should be rounded and look like the one below:

6.Repeat all the steps above to create the other paper fans in different sizes and colours.
