How to make the craft
Performing this craft is very simple. First you will have to draw the shapes on the cards. On the gold card you will draw a circle and on the others a star on each card. Then you just have to take a star and stick it on top of the other, in such a way that the points of each star are crossed with each other as you see in the image.
When you have everything glued, then you will have to take a punch to make the hole where the rope will pass. We have taken a butterfly-shaped die cutter to give it a more beautiful touch.
Cut the string to the appropriate size depending on where you want to put it to decorate and thread it through the hole. Make a knot as you see in the image so that you can hang it, and voila! You will already have your star ornament for Christmas. Children will be able to place it wherever they want and they will enjoy having made this craft with their own hands. It is a very simple craft with materials that are very easy to get, It is done in a few minutes and the result is very good and the children will feel great satisfaction for a job well done.
