VIDEO TUTORIAL:

*If at any point this video is moving too fast for you, and you would like to take it slower, to get a better look at what I just did or follow along, YouTube has a video speed adjuster/slow motion setting, that is great to make use of. On computers look for “gear” symbol. On Smartphones look for “Three dots” symbol.
