Gather your Materials
For an enjoyable crafting experience, it’s important to gather all your materials in advance for your star Christmas craft. Here’s a detailed list of items you might need:
If you like to add some embellishments to your star ornament, consider adding some sparkle with glitter, or sequins. You can also use some fun colorful beads or even some shiny adhesive gems.
How to make a Star Christmas Ornament
To create a star ornament, you’ll need three toilet paper rolls.
1. Start by taking one roll and flattening it out.
2. Next, fold it in half and then unfold it again.
3. Open one end of the roll and stack the fold on top of each other. Press down in the opposite direction to create two additional creases near the edge.
4. Now, fold the edge of the roll inward to form two points. Press to mark the folds.
5. Repeat this process on the other end of the roll.
6. By now, you should have a roll that is folded in half with two pointed tips on each side.
7. Repeat the same folding technique with the other two rolls.
8. Once you have all three rolls folded, it’s time to put your Christmas ornament together.
9. Start by applying a strip of glue to the side of the first roll and fix the second roll on top of it.
10. Then, glue the third roll in place and gently unfold the cardboard to shape it into a star.
11. Take a piece of twine, fold it in half to create a loop, and glue the ends inside the ornament.
12. If needed, add a few extra dots of glue to secure the star shape.
13. Finally, grab some acrylic paint in your favorite color (I used this color) and paint your new DIY star ornament.
14. Allow the paint to dry completely before hanging it on your Christmas tree for a festive touch.
