Starry Christmas

The stars have a prominent place in the Christmas decorations . In the imaginary Christmas, the stars symbolize that which guided the Wise Men to the manger in Bethlehem. That star of Bethlehem prodigious sole mission was to point out to the Magi the exact place where he was to be born the Son of God. So now when we decorate our house for Christmas nativity scene placed on the birth star and also crown the tree with a star. Still could talk much more, from a pagan perspective, the whole symbolism of the star in this holiday but we would extend too.

Let us therefore limit ourselves to teach one way, or two, to make paper stars decorate our house for the next Christmas . The paper stars are a simple craft but like most things in life, sometimes the simple defeat us by its simplicity, ie to do things methodically, even the simplest.
Starry Christmas
To make a beautiful and almost perfect star with six points we will need several things:


  • Paper.
  • A circular object, glass, cup, etc. ...
  • A compass.
  • A rule.
  • Scissors.
  • Pencil.
  • Glitter or other small decorative element we want to add to the stars.

We can make our stars serving us two different techniques. Different in design from the star that we have to draw for star role in the folding of the paper are identical. In the first method we will use a round object such as a glass, we will support him face down on the paper and draw a circle around the pen. We see in figure 1 that the diameter of the cup used as a template is 9 cm, mark the circle six marks 4.5 cm apart. We combine the six marks and two triangles we will cross or a Star of David. Star cut out, fold in half of each triangle and get our six-pointed star with volume.

The method is very simple compass, draw a circle. Maintain the distance of the compass with which we have traced the circle and scored six segments. We connect brands and also get the Star of David. From here proceed as in the previous method.

According to the paper we use and the elements you add to the stars get very different results. But all perfect and charming. Then we can hang with wire tree, make wreaths or just post them on the wall or furniture. The possibilities are endless. Igniting Imagination!
