It is always delightful to receive presents with wishes in some form – a card, personalized tags, etc.
Paper Fan Sticks are very pretty and easy to make. It takes hardly 10 minutes to make and can be used for many occassions, like Mothers’ Day, Teachers’ Day, etc. Alternatively, just make the fan sans the stick and make a badge for Fathers’ Day or some birthday.

2. Now trim the ends of both the fans and make the shape a little round. This is an optional step.
3. Now hold both the fans together. Fold them from the centre and staple it.
