Step by Step Instructions for Making a DIY Award Ribbon

Start by folding a sheet of paper in half (along the longer side).

This way the center will be marked. Now cut along the middle to get two long strips of paper.

Start folding the sheet of paper (the strip) making accordion folds all the way till the end.

Not sure how to make this? You can watch the video tutorial as this step is shown more clearly.

This is what you should be getting once the whole paper is folded.

Do the same with the other strip of paper.

Push the “accordion” together (close it). Fold it in half.

Glue together on one side.

This will make the paper look like a fan.

At the bottom of the fan, the last two or three accordion folds will still be able to be stretched out. We don’t want that, so apply a small amount of glue at the centre to glue them together.

Repeat these steps with the other strip of paper.

Now you have two fans and you need to glue them together.

Hold them together for a while for the glue to set.

Cut a circle out of yellow paper. It needs to be smaller than the award ribbon rosette.

Write what the award is for. We went with the “Best Dad Award”.

Add glue at the back of the yellow circle and press it on to the rosette. Allow the glue to set.

Cut two ribbons out of red paper.

Glue them on the back of the award ribbon rosette.

All done and ready to be given to the best dad in the world.
