Christmas Crafts - Paper Crafts - Lacy Gold Paper Star Tree Ornament
Create these delicate and lacy stars to give your Christmas tree an elegant look. These stars are easier to craft than they look and one is completed within a half an hour. You can also enlarge the pattern and use heavier cardstock to create window decorations with these stars as well.

 

 

Christmas Paper Craft - Christmas Star Window Decoration

Copyright: All patterns, pictures and text found on Craftideas.info are property of this website and may be only printed out and used for private or non-commercial purposes. It is not permitted to use them on the internet or in any other publication.

For this project you will need:

- Gold colored paper
- ruler
- craft knife
- small squares of double sided adhesive
  tape (less messy and fast) or strong
  craft glue and paper clips
- gold wire for hanging

 

 

Instructions:

1. Print out the pattern to the size you would like and trace 6 times onto gold paper.
2. Cut the inside lines using your craft knife.
3. Starting from the inside out, fold the middle 2 cuts in one direction and curl as it looks in example “a”.
4. Take the next 2 sections and fold them the other way and adhere the 2 points together as seen in example “b”.
5. Now fold the next section the other direction and adhere. Continue this pattern until all of the sections have been completed and the piece looks now like example “c”.
6. Complete steps 1-3 again for the remaining 5 pieces then glue the points together. Example “d” shows how this step looks. Continue until 6 points are attached. The last point can be a little tricky because it may not want to hold. Use more adhesive and hold with paper clips until dry.
7. Punch a hole in the top of the completed star and insert a thin wire for hanging.
