Created a template of half the shape I wanted from cardstock. 3"h x 1.25"w

Using a very old cheap outdated encyclopedia paper, folded in half and placed my template against the folded edge. traced the template, then  cut out (I folded 3 pages at a time since it's very thin paper). Cut 24 shapes.

Adhere one half to another half and glue from the folded edge to the outer edge in a  straight line approx. 1/2" down from the top, then at the mid point and then about 1/2" from the bottom.

Adhere the next half in straight lines from about the 1/2 from the top and 1/2" from the bottom. continue gluing in this sequence.

(Not sure why it's glued this way...)

Before gluing the last one to close the ornament, adhere a string, then glue the last fold together. I added the beads as decoration.
