I just felt like sharing this cute craft I have been making for a couple years now.

Supplies

- Any color piece of printer paper. Paper any thicker then printer paper may be hard to work with and cause your fingers to be sore.
- Scissors.

For step one, all you have to do is cut your piece of paper into small slips, not too big unless the paper is longer then a standard sheet of paper.

After cutting your paper, grab one slip and carefully fold the bottom of it up, almost sideways so it is crossed.

Next, fold the slip behind the paper, then over top again so you get a weird pentagon shape.

Next, begin folding the paper around the shape until you get a small pentagon. Then tuck the paper under so it is secured in place.

Lastly, gently push in every side of your pentagon, working to puff open the star at the same time. This is the most difficult part, so if you struggle with this I do suggest practicing on thicker paper. It is all up to preference on how you do it. In the end customize is in any way you’d like and you can even make little boxes for your stars too!
