This year, if you have a few extra minutes to spend on decorating your Christmas tree, why not, instead of being satisfied with the usual ornamental balls, devote yourself to a DIY project that will display an extra touch of creativity!

Follow our tutorial and make with your own hands the holiday decorations that we propose. You can decide what form you want to create!

Therefore, just procure the following materials --- PVA glue (white glue), water, colored thread or yarn, polystyrene, and pins. If you are not so imaginative then just let yourself be guided by what we have prepared!

1. Get the shape you want to create (in this case a star), place it on a piece of polystyrene, and trace out the outline with pins.
