I liked the interfacing method and I would still recommend it to beginners, but starching around a template is easier for me now and as you have noticed, less bulky.

I center the template on the fabric, starch around the edges, and start pulling the edges over the template a little at a time with the edge of the iron until I've gone all the way around. Pull out the template, run a glue stick around the outside of the circle under the fold, rearrange it and then press again until the glue dries.
