Artist Tips

The same star can be made with thick paper or thin paper, just keep in mind that the patterned paper is thinner and the star will be more delicate.
In the workshop you will learn how to measure and hand cut strips of paper, but if you have a paper cutter you can use that instead.
While the glue is drying on the Swedish stars you can multitask by working on other stars.
It helps to pre-bend the thick gold paper before gluing so that it stays in place easier.
When adding glue for the Swedish star, a small amount does the job. Excess glue will smear onto the paper.

Fun Facts

The 3d star is called a Swedish star while the flat star is called a Danish star.
The stars are both known as advent stars, and represent the star of Bethlehem. They are displayed during the 4 weeks leading up to the Christmas holiday.
You can decorate the stars even more by adding glitter, gold leaf or dipping them in paraffin wax.
