You can refer to the finished product. Take another piece of paper, as shown in the black area b in the picture, cut out a long strip, and stick it with glue. Attach a long ribbon to the top of the black area b (the position shown by the dot in the picture) to cover it. The edge of the paper that was just glued on. Apply glue all over the gray areas c, d, e and f. Turn over to the back, that is, the printed side is facing up, fold the two sides upward, coincide with the handle, that is, the heart-shaped position at the upper end, and fold the semicircle through the hole downward. Stuff the four glued areas into the bag and press them to both sides so that they stick firmly to both sides.

c) Cut a piece of paper wider than the ribbon, and cut it at a 45-degree angle;

d) Drill a hole at the midpoint of the bottom of the semicircle that is folded downward in Figure 3. The size of the hole is determined by the brad nail;

e) Thread both the ribbon and the paper tape on the brad nails and pass them through the holes punched in d.
