Supplies-cardstock,scissors,hot glue gun,glue sticks,ruler,pencil, something to trace for small circle..i find K-cups work great for a 6 inch medallion..I start with an 8.5 x 11 piece of cardstock

using your 1/2 inch mark start folding the strips accordion style

gather the circle together til you get a cone shape and lightly press down.
