Cone Caps

By Saakshi Khanna; Illustrations by Shinod AP

Whether it's your birthday party or your grandfather's, it's an ideal occasion to make the conical caps at home. Making them can be more exciting than buying them.

The things you need:
1. Chart paper (12 inches x 18 inches)
2. Glue
3. Scissors
4. Glitter glue
5. Cotton ball
6. Ribbon
7. Pencil

Step 1: Use the 12 inch side of the chart paper as the height and the 18 inch side as the base. Draw a wide triangle to get the cone shape.

Step 2: Round the base as shown in the figure. Cut out the triangle.

Step 3: Decorate the caps with glitter glue. If you do not have glitter glue then you can do spray painting or stick cutouts from old greeting cards.

Step 4: Put a line of glue on one side of the triangle. Roll it in a cone shape. Stick the cotton ball on top of the cone.

Step 5: Make two holes on the opposite ends at the base of the cap. Tie ribbons two each of the holes.

Make caps of different colours for all the friends you are planning to invite at your party.
