So first you need to do is get you box cutters and some cardboard and you need the two gold pipe cleaner and the yellow ones as well but first you need a cardboard to a rectangle. Then, you cut it to half but both need need to be at least 4 inches for the width and the length like the one with a dowel. Now then after that you need the two gold pipe cleaner and make them look like pitchfork. For the yellow pipe cleaner into triangles, then attach them to trident.

The Waves

After the last step I forgot to add another part but you need a cardboard rectangle look like. Then you hot glue the two square to the rectangle and look like that picture of So next step is to get your box cutters or a exacto knife and make the top in to waves. Do it to the other side and then it show like the finished one then add the trident on the middle.
