Use the excess floss on the ends to make a pyramid. If there is not enough excess floss, cut small pieces and use that. Be sure that you are tying floss to floss, nothing should be touching the straw. Leave the extra string, you will need it later.
Fold the tissue paper in ¼, trace pattern. Be sure that the fold is where it should be. Cut what you traced.
Tie the vertices (corners) together tightly. Remember floss to floss, if there is no excess, get a small piece and use it.
