• Now, take the cardboard pieces and make a marking of 1.5 inches on it on both sides. Make a slant line from the mark and cut it using a cutter. This gives the cardboard strips a diamond-likea shape. Similarly, cut all the cardboard pieces.
• Apply glue on the diamond shape cardboard pieces and stick the matchsticks on it. Similarly, stick all the matchsticks on the cardboards properly.
• Take a cardboard piece and place all the diamond shape cardboard pieces on it forming a flower. Take a pointer and place it in the center. Take measurement above the flower with the other end. Now remove the flower and make a circle with similar measurement. Cut it using a cutter.

• Now take another cardboard and mark an arc over it that would fit between two petals of the flower. Cut out 7 such arcs.
• Now take the matchsticks. Place the matchsticks on the straight lines of the arc using some glue. When placed on both the ends, take another matchstick and place beside them cutting the edges as per the size of the arc. Continue this till you cover the entire arc properly. Fill all the arcs using matchsticks in a similar way.

• Now take a glitter sheet. Apply glue on the circular cardboard and stick the glitter sheet on it. Cut out strips from the glitter sheet and stick it on the sides of the cardboard.

• Now take a beaded lace, a bead,and a stone lace. Stick the bead on the center of the cardboard. Surround it with the beaded lace. Again, surround the beaded lace with stone lace too. Finally, surround the stone lace with the beaded lace too.

• Now take the cardboard flower petals. Surround the bead in the center with the petals and stick them at a particular distance. Take the arcs and stick them in between two petals on the edge of the cardboard.

• Now take some pearls and a beaded lace too. Enter the beaded lace through the pearl, apply some glue on the beaded lace and stick the pearl with the lace. Enter another pearl through the beaded lace. Now take the arc and make a hole in the center of the cardboard. Allow the bead lace pass through the arc cardboard. Now pass 3 pearls through the beaded lace again and enter the arc again on it. Finally, end up the tassel by entering a pearl on it.
• Stick the tassel on the lower side edge of the cardboard to give it a hanging tassel. Take another bead lace and make a hanging for the wall piece on the back side.
