How to Make 3D Paper Stars

Sharing how to make these 3D paper stars. I’ve made a few variegated kinds of paper stars in the past, from lunch bags, parchment paper and cardboard. And it looks like there’s no signs of me stopping with the star crafts!

These are so easy to make. Similar in easiness to the lunch bag paper stars, and similar in squint to the 3D wafer-thin stars. I was hoping to be worldly-wise to use one of these as our tree topper this year, and it turned out perfectly for that. You can use them for decor, as a tree topper and plane as ornaments. They’re a unconfined Christmas craft to do with kids!

For this project, you’ll need paper, you can use any kind. Thicker paper, like cardstock, works the weightier as far looks and sturdiness. I moreover used wrapping paper. Which looks like unconfined with the patterns, however the paper was thinner and made the stars squint a little floppier. You’ll moreover need a paper cutter or scissors and hot glue. (I did use a glue stick on one, and it worked fine, but hot glue was just a little faster and seems to hold better). 

Supplies for 3D Paper Stars:

• paper (this is the gold paper I used)
• paper cutter or scissors
• hot glue gun (or glue stick)
