About this file

A three-strip accordion rosette with 48 pleat panels and two 25 mm center disks.
From file to finished page
- Choose the paper size loaded in your printer and open the matching PDF.
- Print at actual size (100%) on the matching paper. Measure the 50 mm reference line on a physical trial; a screen ruler is not a print check.
- Cut the three strips and two circles. Each strip has sixteen 10 mm pleat panels plus one 10 mm glue tab.
- Score and accordion-fold each strip, alternating the fold direction at every guide. Keep all working folds the same width.
- Join the strips end to end by overlapping each shaded tab under a neighboring full panel. Close the third join to make a pleated ring.
- Stand the ring on an edge, then gently flatten it into a radial fan. Bring the inner edges together without tearing the pleats.
- Glue one circle beneath the center and one over the center. Hold flat until set. The 42 mm strip depth suggests an approximately 84 mm rosette before material effects.
Printing and use notes
Make a scrap-paper trial before using special material or producing a batch.
