Sew Your Own Paper Stars for Christmas
Aaaand another Christmas decoration I am really exited about! These paper stars make a pretty piece of decoration or can be used as a gift wrap for “boring” money gifts or gift cards. Here are the instructions and photos of the process:
Search for a five or six pointed star online and print it on paper. It can be the paper you want to use later or just a plane white paper and use it as a stencil.
Once the star is drawn on the final paper add a second sheet below. Take a stapler and staple the papers together (not inside the star). Start sewing along the lines using a zig zag stitch. Leave two of the sides open for the filling.
If you want to write, draw or stamp on the star, now would be the best time for it.
Fill the star with paper scrap of paper or fabric stuffing material. If you use it as a gift, now add the money or gift card. Sew the two other sides of the star and cut off all the thread.
Now cut along the seem and remove the leftover paper.
