Make your own Christmas Star

In this post, let's see how to make simple Christmas star.



Supplies needed:
  • Color sheets of paper
  • Scissors
  • Scale
  • Marker
  • Glue gun (optional)


 First cut the paper in square shape if it wasn't in square shape before.

Now, follow the order mentioned in the figure above.
Step 1: Fold the paper in middle
Step 2: Fold the paper in such a way that bottom right corner coincides with upper side of the square
Step 3: Now, remove that previous fold and now fold it in such a way that upper right corner coincides with bottom side of the square.
Step 4: Step 2 and step 3 leaves a cross mark. Now fold it such that bottom left corner of the paper meets the center of the cross mark formed by step 2 and 3.


Step 5: Fold it in middle as in above pic
Step 6: Fold the remaining part such that it coincides with the folded part of step 5
Step 7: Fold it in middle again as in above pic
Step 8: Crease the ends properly.


Now, mark a point at around 1.5cm from the end or more if you need more steepness for star. Mark a line as shown above and cut along the marked line.


Fold the alternative edges formed and crease them properly. That's it Christmas star is ready. Isn't it so simple. Give it a try.!!
You can also stick two stars using glue gun to form two-sided 3D star.


 Thank you for dropping by. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.!!
