Start by choosing a Christmas card to recycle, then use the template to draw and cut out 20 circles. Cut out or create an equilateral triangle, place it in the centre of each circle, and trace around it.

Step 2

Fold along the lines of the triangle. If you're a child, ask an adult to help score across the lines as this will make it easier to fold. Repeat this for each circle.

Step 3
