By folding a strip of paper you can make a beautiful multi-color bowl. You will need a strip of paper with different colors on each side, a scale and a cutter. Take a two color paper Strip 120-cm long and 3.5 wide on its broad end. Fold right angles along the entire length of the strip. Always fold in one direction. Soon several colorful squares will stack on each other. Gradually the square size will become smaller and smaller and the model will look like a low rise pyramid. This will be the final 

Now rework the model as shown folding all the while in the same direction. Hold the model with your hands and twist it in with both your thumbs. The layers will phase out and you will 

See a beautiful pattern. Continue twisting and in the end you will get a multi-colored Triangular bowl. On inverting it will look like a cone. Untwist the model. Once again twist it with both your thumbs but in the opposite direction. Finally you will see a very beautiful Tetrahedron like shape. This work was supported by IUCAA and Tata Trust.
