The first thing we take red cardboard and blacks on it with a semicircle circulation. Cut out the contour clearly. From the direct side of the semicircle, you need to stick the loop from the rope or thread so that at the end of the work we could hang our Santa Claus on the Christmas tree. Loeting glue into the very middle of the direct side of the semicircle. It is possible to fix it with a scotch or strip of paper glued to a dense layer of glue.
Now make a cone. By smearing glue one edge of half a quarter, we will turn it tightly.
Please note that it is necessary to do it extremely carefully, so that the chances do not appear on the cardboard.
It is best to neatly press your fingers only two glued ends of the semicircle along the entire length. You can use bilateral scotch.
Our looping should stick out of the cone. If so, then you did everything right!
