paper stars

I made a bunch of these stars for Christmas while watching Fantastic Beasts on Redbox. I know I’m about two years behind everyone else since the movie is about that old but nevertheless it was a fantastic movie, especially if you’re a Harry Potter fan!

But these pretty little paper stars kept my hands busy and once I got the technique down I was able to make 20-30 of them which I then used to hang in my windows and every where around my house that needed a star.

I especially love making them out of simple brown craft paper and then spritzing them with gold spray paint.

I posted a step-by-step through pictures. I would probably just confuse you more if I explained it in writing. But I also watched this Youtube video which made it really easy to understand.

I suggest cutting them into six by six pieces since they seem to work the best that way. Also it took my quite a few screwups before I made them look good enough, so keep trying!
