What you'll need:
- Empty cereal box
- Paint (Any colour you fancy!)
- A felt tip pen in dark blue or black
- Star templates
- Scissors
- Paintbrush
How to do it:
1. Start by opening out your cereal box and then either print out or free hand draw a 5 pointed star in the size you require.
3. Next, fold along your score lines to give the star it's 3D effect. A tip for this is to fold the line down the center of the point into a hill fold (outwards) and the lines either side of the middle line into a valley fold (inwards) this will make sense when you start to crease your lines.
4. Paint your stars in your desired colour and leave to dry. Don't worry if you can see the pen through the white paint, you want this to happen as it gives them a shabby chic feel! Afterwards I even went back over the lines with an old felt tip just to add even more definition. Once fully dry the card will become stiff and you are ready to place anywhere you like! Make a garland, add on a ribbon and I would love to see what you do with these if you make them!
Enjoy!
