Hi fams, trust your day is going well. So today I decided to show the DIY Handfan I and my student made, it is very easy, very affordable, and fine. We made the Hand fan because, in their creativity scheme for this week, we are to make one. So we made the Handfan with cardboard and paper.

I asked my students if they could make a Hand fan, and two said yes, so I gave everyone's paper and asked the two students to make theirs. They did make it, so I wrote their name on it.

How we made the Handfan using
I cut the cardboard to my desired measurement, then folded it in on the right side, turned it to the back side fold out. I kept doing it till the end of the cardboard length. At this point, this is what it looks like.

this is a design on its own but I wanted a round effect so i joined but edge together to give me the round effect and I stapled but edge together so as not to fall apart and while I was stapling both cedge I had to put my finger in between so I don't staple it all and also to create a hole the I got another cardboard of a small size to cover the hole, just to hold the upper part and the lower part together, then I stapled it. And our fan is set for use.
