Origami Christmas Decoration
I'll show you how to make a nice 3D star from paper. It's perfect for a Christmas decoration...or a gift:)
Materials
You'll need 6 equally squares of paper and some string or thread.
I've used red paper squares 9x9 cm, but you can use bigger or smaller...your choice.

Folding the Model
Take one of the squares and fold it like this...
(I'm sorry, but my English is not very good and I'm not going to explain. I think you'll understand how to fold the model only looking the pictures)
....
Then fold the other 5 squares the same way.
Here's a video:)

Connecting the Models
Now it's time to connect the models.
Like you see each model has 2 points and 2 other sides. You must connect point from one model and other side from the other model. See the pictures.

Final Folding
Add the String
Make a small hole on one of the tops of the star and get the string in. Make a knot and you're ready!
Done!
Now you can put the star on your Christmas tree (like me) or somewhere else:)
