Make an easy Christmas Star decoration!

Are you stuck for ideas for Christmas decorations? Do not worry, we have the solution for you! Here is a quick and easy way to create a fantastic star to hang wherever you like, in your house or on a balcony.

You need very few items, only five rods or wooden chopsticks, two differently colored balls of twine, one darker and one lighter, tempera paint, and quick-setting glue. By following these three steps, you can without a doubt make this lovely homemade Christmas decoration!

1. Arrange the chopsticks so as to form a star and glue their ends together, one over the other.

2. Apply a coat of tempera paint, the color gold if possible, on the chopsticks as displayed.

3. Take the first ball of twine and twist the string around the tips and the body of the star.

. . . then do the same thing with the second ball of twine (if it is lighter in color this will create an interesting visual contrast!).

Congratulations! You have created a lovely DIY Christmas star that is ideal as a holiday decoration for hallways and living rooms!
