Fans

Supplies

Small lace (Buy Now! )
Tacky Glue
2 Metallic Finish Notion Fans (Buy Now!)
Bunka

Here is the original fan.

I wanted a smaller, more dainty look, so I trimmed 2 fans by cutting the tulips off.

(Save the tulips; who knows what else they could be used for?)
I then glued lace along the fan's upper edge. Since the reverse of the fan is white, I glued a second fan to the back, covering the white and giving a neat two-sided finish. A gold pen was used to cover any white edges.

Pulled bunka neatly finishes the area where the bottom of the lace is glued to the fan's upper edge.

Using a needle, I punched a small hole in the handle and attached a small thread tassel in the same color as the bunka.

 

A dainty fan for a warm summer afternoon!
