- Fold and tie the base: Fold the SEGO into a thin strip and tie a small knot at the base, leaving a small tail.
- Create the fan shape: Hold the SEGO vertically and begin folding it into a fan shape, with each fold about 1-2 inches apart.
- Secure with bobby pins: As you fold, use bobby pins to secure the layers in place.
