One of my favourite blogs Zakka Life recently posted a quick tutorial to make these lovely music paper stars. The instructions say to use music paper but you could use any christmasy paper you have. `I think these would look lovely hanging on the Christmas tree or a grouped together on the Christmas table.
Here are the instructions courtesy of the Zakka Life post.
You will need:
Music sheets – you can search online to find holiday carols and print on light brown paper. Position your sheet music so it’s formatted in landscape; Paper trimmer or scissors; Double stick tape.
Basic star instructions:
Instructions For Large Stars
1. Cut music sheets into (2″ x 11″) strips. Make four strips. Tape together to make one long strip.
2. Fold star (instructions above) up to step seven. Using double stick tape, tape end down to star. Finish with step eight. Done
*I recommend not wrapping the paper too tight. The large stars are a little tricky to puff up and might require a couple tries.
Instructions for Small Stars
1. Cut music sheets into (1″ x 11″) strips. Make two strips. Tape together to make one long strip.
2. Fold star (instructions above) up to step seven. Using double stick tape, tape end down to star. Finish with step eight. Done.
Here are two I made. They are very easy to make and very quick!
