The process to make the reeds is simple. Cut the magazine page in half vertically. Then take your wooden skewer and starting from the bottom corner at a slight angle, roll the paper to the opposite corner. About half way, you may need to adjust your skewer so that you don’t roll off one end of it. Once you get it completely rolled, use your glue stick to tack it to stay. Then slide out the skewer.
Then start making piles of them. They are actually quite addicting!
The next step was to glue our reeds onto our frames, cutting them and creating our own individual designs.
Because what would life be without a little colour?
