DIY Christmas Star – Your Crafting Guide
Would you like to recreate the decorative Christmas star made from brown envelopes?
Materials:
- 12 brown envelopes
- Scissors
- Glue
Step-by-step guide:
1. Start by preparing the envelopes. Cut the envelopes to a point towards the opening to get the shape of the star.
- Then cut a smaller point on each side of every envelope to give the star more details.
- Now the envelopes come together: Apply glue to the "T-zone" of each envelope by drawing a line from the middle of the bottom of the envelope to the tip, as well as along the bottom of the envelope itself.
- Now carefully place the envelopes on top of each other so that they overlap in the middle. The glue should hold the envelopes together.
- Once all the envelopes are glued together, pull them apart to form the star-shaped structure.
- Finally, glue the starting and ending envelope together to close the star.
