1. Open the chewing gum wrapper 

2. Fold in the middle and rip in half along the length 

3. Fold the wrapper in half along the length

4. Open & fold the lower half into the center

5. Fold the upper half towards the center

6. Fold in half along the length again

7. Fold the wrapper from step 6 in half

8. Then fold the ends toward the center

Create addional links by repeating steps 1 through 8

Step 8 forms a folded wrapper with slots

Slide the prongs of the first wrapper into the slots of the second wrapper, and keep adding links to form a chain

You can make a chain from all of the same wrappers, pattern it, or totally assort it

HAVE FUN!!!
