Using One Sheet of Paper
This video tutorial shares how to fold a paper ball, about the size of a baseball, from one sheet of paper. The sheet of paper is cut down to three strips of paper that get intertwined with each other. The materials used are simple but the result is really dynamic. Once you make one, you will want to do it again! The paper balls are fun to play with or to use a decoration. Run a string through them and you can hang them in the doorway or make a few and put them in a glass jar.
