With a double sided newspaper we can make this wonderful royal cap. It is shaped like a square and has a star on each of its four sides. You can wear it as a crown in plays performances.

To make this you need a full double newspaper. Fold a triangle along the width and remove the extra strip. You will get a large square with side of the square is width of newspaper.

Now fold along the other diagonal to get the center of the square. Fold all the four the corners of the square to the center of the square. By doing this you create another square which half in area to the larger square. Turn this square and repeat the same for all four corners of this square. Again you'll get a smaller square half in area to the previous one.
Turn it around and you’ll see four small squares in the square.
Now open each side take out the triangle underneath and fold the side to the middle. Do this for the opposite side.  Now repeat the same thing for other 2 opposite sides. In this case we will also fold a small triangle underneath. This fold will hold our crown. And now the royal cap is ready to go on the head. We just need to open it and wear it.
