To create the patterns on each triangle, I used India Ink. I was basically black paint that dries as fast as a sharpie. I used 20 separate triangles and put a different pattern on each. There was a certain pattern the triangles needed to be laid out before glued in order to fold the triangles in a circle. I learned to know which triangles to glue together because I glued them all together which made t impossible to fold in a circle. I liked the project other than having to glue it in a ball. Since the gluing part didn't go as planned for me, I just glued it in an oval sort of. It could fit over a lamp shade if I wanted, still cool!
