You Will Need (2 things)

  • 1 Scissors
  • Paper

Steps (11 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut a strip of paper about the size of the strip shown in the picture.

  2. 2

    This is just a close up of the size of the strip of paper.

  3. 3

    Now, getting started.
    Get the top of the strip.
    Fold down diagonally, making a triangle.

  4. 4

    Fold the excess part of the triangle
    behind the strip,horizontally.

  5. 5

    IT should now look like this, a octagon with a long strip hanging off.

  6. 6

    Wrap and wrap the long strip around the octagon,matching all the sides.

  7. 7

    Leave this much hanging off.

  8. 8

    Fold the excess strip into one of the creases in the octagon.

  9. 9

    You now have a perfect octagon! (:

    Pinch the five corners,making a star.
    Be careful not to pinch TOO much.

    To make it easier, pinch a little and little until you get it pinched just the amount you want (helpful for beginners)

    THERE YOU HAVE YOUR STAR<3
