How to cut the window grilles in the Year of the Rabbit to look good?

The steps of cutting window grilles in the Year of the Rabbit are as follows:

First, prepare a square piece of red paper, a pen and a pair of scissors. Turn the red paper face up, and first fold the center line of the red paper in half. Then fold the left and right sides of the red paper in half, align the edge lines, and then draw two arcs on the folded paper.

On the arc, draw the general shape of the rabbit first, and then draw the specific characteristics of the rabbit in detail. Then, after painting, draw a semi-circular lace in the arc. Then cut off the outline of the line drawing pattern with scissors, and then slowly cut off the details inside along the lines. When it is opened, it becomes a lifelike rabbit.
