Pleated star - Decoration

This star is very beautiful and can be used for decorating the window, wall, or table. You only need a few things, and it is easy to make.

What you need:

- 7-8 square paper (I took 14cm x 14cm, but you can of course take other proportions)

- Glue

Step 1

Turn the paper around and fold the two opposite points onto each other.

(for creating a line in the middle)

Open the paper again and fold both sides to the center line like in the picture

Step 2

The upper corners are also folded to the middle

Step 3

Now, the paper will be turned around and the bottom part is folded diagonally to the top right

Step 4

Do the same with the other side

After that you will see a cross in the middle

Step 5

Now comes the most complicated part

The tine is now folded over and into each other as shown

(The cross will help you to manage this technique)

Tip: press the larger side toghether in the middle, so the smaller left tip will be formed

automatically and the smaller tip is also pressed toghether in the middle

Step 6

If you have managed the step before your paper will look like that

Step 7

You repeat all these 7 steps with the other papers

Step 8

Now the small ring is always pushed into the larger of the next prong and glued

You do this with all papers!

This is how your star looks like at the end!
