Ingredients
Popsicle Sticks
Coffee Filters
Brads
Instructions
Punch holes in the ends of your popsicle sticks.
Put a brad through the holes in the popsicle sticks.
Next, cut the coffee filter as shown.
Then cut the center portion out so you're left with a long rainbow shape.
Arrange the coffee filter over the popsicle sticks to create your fan shape, then trim the coffee filter to the appropriate size.
Using markers or stamps, create a design on the coffee filter.
Adhere the coffee filter to the popsicle sticks, making sure the pretty side is facing away from the popsicle sticks and the round side of the brad is also facing up.
Once dry, you can use your Chinese Fan as a fun prop or decoration for your Chinese New Year celebration.
