Hello- I am confused as to why the directions state to cut a 12×12 inch piece of crepe paper when that is not possible. The crepe paper is only 10 inches wide. What am I missing? Thanks for your help.

Hi! This was created a couple years ago when we had long rolls of crepe paper that could be cut down to 12×12 squares. But we’ll update the directions to reflect the crepe we have now!
Thank you!
