How to Make
Step 1
Start by threading a plastic needle with the elastic, then poke through and thread on, the coloured pom poms. (Making sure to space them evenly apart).
Step 2
Cut the end of the pom pom garland leaving about a 4-inch tail. Create a loop at this end with a knot and snip away the excess.
Step 3
Cut out all the shapes using the templates and coloured paper.
Step 4
Fold 1 cm wide strips into your rectangle, flipping over each time create a concertina effect.
Step 5
Fold the finished concertina in half and glue in place. If any of the flaps start unfolding add a small blob of glue inside and secure down.
Step 6
Finish your garland by gluing all the flame shapes together and glue that onto the diya. Finally glue the flame to the end of your garland elastic!
