Giveaway in step 7!!!     CLOSED

To make lucky star beads you will need
- paper 1/16 A4
- paperclip
-sciccors 

To add the lucky star beads to cord you will need
- wire

First you will nee dto make the same 'knot' as by normal lucky stars. In the prictures is shwn how to do this. 
After making the knot we are going to use the paperclip. Bend it straight. Put it through the base so it is in two of the corners.

Now you need to wrap the paper around the base. You just wrap and wrap and the paperclip stays in it's position. Tuck the end in.

Take the base/paperclip between your fingers and press at the middle of a side to make it pop up. Repeat this for every side.

Now you can just take out the paperclip. When you look closely, you'll see the hole.

To get your beads on a string, you can best take a piece of wire and make a 'needle' . Because you can flatten it a bit, it will fit through the bead.

What have you made with these beads?
The first three people who send me a pic of what they made with it will get a 3 month pr-membership and a patch designed by me!
