2 Use the ruler and pencil to mark out six lines around the blades.

3 Paint each block, starting from the base of the fan in this order: Resene Smitten, Resene Poppy, Resene Pursuit, Resene Outrageous, Resene Paris Daisy, Resene Dizzy Lizzy and Resene Seeker.

4 To avoid the colours mixing, use a hair dryer to dry each colour before moving on to the next one.
