Introduction: Origami Christmas Decoration

I'll show you how to make a nice 3D star from paper. It's perfect for a Christmas decoration...or a gift:)

Step 1: Materials

You'll need 6 equally squares of paper and some string or thread.
I've used red paper squares 9x9 cm, but you can use bigger or smaller...your choice.

Step 2: Folding the Model

Take one of the squares and fold it like this...

(I'm sorry, but my English is not very good and I'm not going to explain. I think you'll understand how to fold the model only looking the pictures)

....

Then fold the other 5 squares the same way.

Here's a video:)

Step 3: Connecting the Models

Now it's time to connect the models.

Like you see each model has 2 points and 2 other sides. You must connect point from one model and other side from the other model. See the pictures.

And here's a video:

Step 4: Final Folding

The star is almost ready...just a few more folds...

Step 5: Add the String

Make a small hole on one of the tops of the star and get the string in. Make a knot and you're ready!

Step 6: Done!

Now you can put the star on your Christmas tree (like me) or somewhere else:)
