  2. Shall cut strips of paper in three colors. Strip width should be twice larger than the pitch, plus the allowance of 2-4 mm. For our step width of the strip is obtained by 22-24 mm. The very first strip should be slightly wider, since they cover the outer contours of the Christmas tree. How much should bands at once is difficult to calculate. Better to cut them during the work.
