How to make Lucky Stars

To day, Origami Paper will tell you how to make those really Lucky Stars. The origami lucky star is fairly simple to make. It's a lucky charm, a popular tradition to fill up glass jars with these lucky stars.

1. Start with a strip of paper, I have used a strip with the masses 30cm x 1cm.

2. At one end of the strip is a "node" made, as you would do with a piece of string.

3. Tighten the knot very carefully, without bending the paper. That takes some patience. 5 edge has been formed

4. either cut away the protruding short end or fold backwards. Flatten the star gently.

5. The 5-sided shape of the star already exists. The long strip around the edge bend.

6. And further wrinkle to the next edge to the rear.

7. Fold the strip again to the next edge until it is depleted. The end-piece to secure under the tab slide.

8. The 5-sided shape is still there, the star has become only slightly thicker, because he now has several layers.

9. Now even the teeth must be formed. Each of the 5 pages is pressed gently with your fingernail. The star is automatically in three dimensions.

10. Such is the final star. If you get it once, it's really quite simple. Who the still can not imagine, I recommend on Youtube for "Lucky Stars" to search.

The Origami stars are often filled and presented in a glass. They do, however, quite well as a table decoration.
And during the Advent season, they come naturally in gold and silver especially well over.
