How to Construct a Pyramid

After my April 15th post (link here), many of you out there in blog land wrote to me asking how I made my pyramid. So I put together this short video tutorial. Luckily they are much easier to construct than the ancient Egyptian pyramids. I hope you have fun making your own.



Additional note:
I know many of you asked for a template. Instead of working from a template you have to download or copy, enlarge, and then trace out on a piece of card stock, I find it easier (and I get better results) when I make my own templates. Make your square and triangle out of a heavy card stock or card board and you can use it over and over again.
