Description :

A cute little christmas star using waste materials, to decorate your house during christmas season.

STEP 1 : Make the frame

First of all you need to make a frame of a star shaoe, you can use anything for making the frame. Here I have used ice-cream sticks and pasted them using Fevicol MR.

STEP 2 : Thread to hang the star

Then you need to tie a piece of thread somewhere on the frame extending it to the middle as shown in the picture.

STEP 3 : Pasting the shells

Now you can stick the pistachios shell on the frame using Fevicol MR.

STEP 4 : Paper Circle

You need to make a small paper circle of diameter 1 -1.5 cm .

STEP 5 : Make a flower

You can take 5 - 6 pista shells and stick on the circle forming a flower.

STEP 6

Press a bead at the centre of the flower.

STEP 7 : Paint the Star

Now paint the star and the flower. Here I have used violet and pink alternatively for the star, and yellow for the flower.

STEP 8

Take a piece of cellotape and stick the flower you have made on the thread tied on the star.

STEP 9 : Christmas Star

Your christmas star is ready. Hang it anywhere you like.
