Chinese New Year
is such an important festival for chinese in Malaysia.
It will be a time for reunion dinner,
house visiting, CNY movie marathon,
Angpao collecting/givings and of course CNY decoration.
We can easily get CNY decor such as Lanton and red packets in a local shop or supermarket.
But if you would like to have something different,
you probably can try this colour paper rosette.
I forgot to take some photos while I was making them.
So here are a few pictures I took while I was making a paper rosette with the magazine pages.
Step 1: Choose a paper based on the colour and the size you want
Step 2: Fold it back to back
Step 3: Fold the paper into half, so that it looks like a fan
Step 4: Repeat the process to make another 2 fans
Step 5: Glue or tape the borders to join all fans together.
Ta-da, here are the matching colours of paper rosettes!

Happy Chinese New Year!
