Cut out the strips.
Score the strips along the gray lines with a folding tool or a nail file, and carefully press in the semicircles.
Press the strips flat again. Stick the ends of the first strip together to form a ring.
Stick the ends of the second ring together to form a ring, and slide it over the first ring as shown in the picture. The areas with the curved gray fold lines should be visible on both parts.
Thread the third strip between the two rings and likewise stick the ends together to form another ring.
Slide all the rings into place so that the areas with the folded semicircles are visible.
Carefully press all the semicircles inwards...
... until the Christmas bauble is finished!
You can hang the baubles on thread.
