Fold pretty stars for decoration

Before you can start folding, you must first cut the tracing paper.

  1. The tracing paper should be cut into rectangles so that a beautiful star shape results. You can decide the size yourself, as you will certainly prefer several variants. The size of 5 cm x 10 cm is used for these handicraft instructions. Now cut 16 rectangles of the same size, either in this size or as you like.
  2. Now place a cut rectangle from the tracing paper in front of you. Now fold it in half so that you get a thin vertical strip. Then open the tracing paper again.
  3. To get a star you now have to fold small triangles at the four corners. These should lead to the center line you just folded. The longitudinal bend is at the bottom so that you have a hollow instead of a hill.
  4. After you have folded the four corners to the center line, smooth them out nicely.

  5. Now fold again at the corners, so that the upper and lower longitudinal edges also reach the center line. The triangles should no longer be visible because the vertical strips have been folded over here.
  6. You are now done with the first star tip. Now repeat steps two to five.
  7. Did you fold all 16 star points from the tracing paper? Wonderful, then the star is now being put together. Take a star tip and place it in front of you. Now take a second one and glue it to the first point so that the second star point is exactly on the center line of the first point.
  8. Now continue with the other 14 star tips and glue them to the next tip on the center line each time. After all 16 transparent tips have been glued, you should now have your self-made star in front of you.

You can now punch the star in one place and, for example, insert it into the star with a thin thread Christmas tree or hang on the window. Of course they are Stars Can also be used decoratively in the apartment or on the apartment door.
