"Step 4: Once you have cut through the shape, continue glueing three more bags on to your design. Using your shaped bags as a template, cut the next three bags out. Repeat with the remaining three bags until all nine bags are glued together and shaped. Above: Shaping the star "arms." Step 5: Now, open your design to reveal your paper star shape. Above: The big reveal."
"Step 6: Using a hole punch, make a hole through two points of the star. Thread with jute twine or thin velvet ribbon. Above: Threading the ribbon. Step 7: Tie two knots in the ribbon: one near the hole you've just made and another towards the end of your ribbon. Above: If you're crafting several stars, cut the ribbon at various lengths so the stars hang at different levels."
Sketch a shape for the arms of the star and cut it out, optionally adding small nicks for embellishment. Glue three more shaped paper bag pieces to the initial shape, use the shaped bags as a template to cut and glue subsequent groups of three until nine pieces form the star. Open the assembled pieces to reveal the paper star. Use a hole punch to make holes through two points, thread jute twine or thin velvet ribbon, and tie two knots—one near the hole and another near the ribbon end. Vary ribbon lengths for multiple stars and secure any loose folds with a paper clip before hanging.
