Here you go :)
Do a google search for “paper star tutorial” for more.
My daughter and her friends have drowned me in these stars. She said the tutorial @dynamicduo put a link to is good!
They are addictive to make, be careful :)
If you’re looking for cool papers to make stars with, visit your Chinatown if you have one. I have seen kits for these stars that include tons of strips of cool paper, but you can just as easily find cool origami paper and cut it into strips.
I just ordered wads of origami paper on Thursday , sadly there is no Chinatown , nor Chinese stores here :( i do love origami tho .
So cute! They would make such neat Christmas ornaments or something… like a cluster of them all together in holiday colors hanging on a string. Must.Try.Origami.Stars.
My youngest daughter loves origami… she can make a crane that’s so small it fits on the end of my pinkie finger! I am so going to forward that link to her. Thanks, DD!
Yes,
1. take a small strip of paper that’s narrow, maybe ⅓ inch wide, but is a good maybe 4 inches long, make a 2-D knot near one end. The knot should be shaped like a pentagon.
2. Take the strip of paper and wind it around the pentagon so it remains shaped like a pentagon and remains almost 2-D. When nearly all paper is wound around pentagon, take one end of the strip and thread it so it can’t unravel.
3. Shape it!
