German Star Video Tutorial at With a Grateful Prayer and a Thankful Heart
Supplies: double-sided 12x12 scrapbook paper cut into 3/4" strips, paraffin wax, ornament hanger
Time: 30 minutes
Description: We'll be making these folded paper German Stars (aka Moravian Stars or Froebel Stars). It takes a bit of practice to get the folding down, but my four-years-old daughter can do with a little help from mom. These make great gift toppers, wreath adornments, or of course, ornaments for your tree.
