:: paper {either cover or text weight}

STEP ONE: cut irregular circle

This circle is approximately 8 inches, but you can do any size you wish. (this craft was also featured in our magazine here)

STEP TWO: cut spiral

Start at the outside edge and cut in a spiral fashion to the center.

If you aren’t so sure about your cutting skills, feel free to draw your spiral before cutting. I did this one with a straight edge, but you could make it bumpy as well.
