Fold corners up to the 12 o’clock position, bringing the folded edges together to form a seam up the center (FIG. C)
With scissors, carefully cut 6 evenly spaced slots about ¼” in form each folded edge as shown. Place slot directly across from each other. Be careful, not to cut the folded edge! (FIG. C)
Lace a 24” piece of ribbon through slots and tie at top as shown (FIG. D)
To make the handle, trace a small plate or other round edge to draw a 6” circle. Using a slightly smaller round edge, trace a 5” circle inside the first one (FIG. E)
Fold the circle in half with the lines facing out. Carefully match up the lines so they are back to back , then cut our the handle (FIG. F)
