The Steps for How to Make the Easy Christmas Crafts: Paper Circles Triangle Doily Ornament:
Print the Paper Circles Triangle Doily Ornament pattern.
Or, you can use a compass or other circular object as a template for the circles.
The diameter of the paper circles should be 1/2 inch less than one-half of the size or diameter of the paper doily.
For example, for this 4-inch doily, the circles are 1.5 inches in diameter. [4 divided by 2 minus .5]
Measure, draw and cut out six of the circles.
