This star-shaped treat holder is perfect for any occasion, and delightful to hand out at parties. It’ll keep little knickknacks in place, too (i.e. rings, earrings, clips, and such). 
** DIMENSIONS ** I used a 6″ x 6″ square to make the Star Candy Holder. TOP VIEW: The completed origami candy holder is approximately…
Here’s a sweet looking origami ball/kusudama by Tomoko Fuse. She really does design some of THE best kusudamas out there. And everyone knows I love kusudamas, even though they usually take a very long time to make, assemble, and teach. I just love the stars! I’d imagine it making a great Christmas decoration/ornament, too. Some gold origami paper, and…
Ever tried paper weaving? If not, here’s your chance to learn! This beautiful, Moravian (German) Star is great for home decor, especially during Christmastime (and throughout the year, too!).

A wonderful way to recycle old magazines! I love how this looks hanging from a string on a Christmas tree. Frame your favorite family photos. Make one as a gift! They’re quick, easy, thoughtful, and inexpensive!

Making a 5-pointed star utilizes the same process as a 6-pointed star. To make slippery ribbons more secure, dab a bit of glue.…
Thought I’d do a tutorial on how to make a Christmas Star (it’s somewhat of a misnomer, since it’s appropriate for any occasion, I think!). It’s a very simple and fun project, especially with kids. Makes a great gift, too! Hang them on strings to make tree ornaments, or use oak-tag paper to make a…
