Step 5: Fold it in half again.
Step 6: Now fold your very thin paper in half again and open it up.
Step 8: Repeat this several times.
(My paper was 5.9 x5.9, so I made about 18 of these to create a full wreath.
You may need more or fewer depending on your papers size and your preference for ornament size.)
Step 9: Take two of your folded sheets.
See how they resemble Vs?
They should alternate and look like this chain.
