I modified Kathy’s method a little. This is how I did mine
Start with a square piece of paper. Fold into four.
( Remember to recycle by using those paper from your office !)
Then, draw two lines using this triangle ruler from your schoolbag ;D
[I realize that one of the angles ( the smaller one,of course) is 30 degrees. ]
Cut through all those layers on the drawn line. You’ll get 3 x 4 = 12 wedges.
Now, take one wedge and fold into two. Draw a line as shown in the right picture.Cut on the line.
Open up and there you have your first wedge ! Stack up all those wedges and snip off the points using the first wedge as a guide.
Fold the square piece of paper into four, then diagonally keeping those points sharp. Shape the wedges as desired.
And yes….those paper templates are reusable.
I would love to see the dresden plates you make using this method. Do mail me your pictures !
Excellent idea Penny, I'll be trying that one!
ReplyDeleteI like your way of finding the 30 degree point........... the ends come out so neat too..... Hugz
