How to Make Origami Paper Stars
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- These stars aren't hard, but there are a few steps that are difficult to decipher with still images alone, so I've made a video of how to make the stars. The cool thing about these stars is that the only material you need is square paper, and I was even able to find square 12" x 12" square paper at Michaels, so I didn't need to cut the paper into a square. The only other too you might find helpful is fingernails, for clean folds, but this is optional. I hope you find this little tutorial helpful!

I have made several of these stars using different videos as guides. They are very similar but each is just a little different. This video was nice but I think the all black paper made it hard to see what you were doing. If this had been the first time trying to make these stars, I would have struggled. I do appreciate your doing the video, though.
Wow! Thank you so much! I've really struggled with different origami tutorials, but yours just made my day! Thank you! It was concise, easy to follow and the end product looks amazing!!!!
After a few times finally I found out, how to make it,thank you for brilliant idea 🙂
I just did this last night and I made a beautiful star tree topper! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I upcycled some brown paper bags and cut out eight 5 x 5 in (12.7 x 12.7 cm) squares. It took me about an hour and I struggled a little at the end trying to get the folds together, but I think it's better than buying a tree topper, plus I got to recycle paper. I think it took longer for me because I had to measure and cut all the squares. I never do origami or papercrafts but you explained well enough so I could manage, thank you! ☺

Couldn‘t follow this. The black paper makes everything almost invisible and when the piece is folded in on itself I cannot follow at all, because she suddenly flips it to the other side or something without mentioning what exactly she‘s doing? So frustrating. :-/
it's very exhausting but the concept is brilliant. thank you
Thank you it was awesome 👍 i tried it with multicolor papers and the result was gorgeous 🎉
Great demo, I will try this.
this was simple to put together once construction of the individual points became easier. i found that i had to make 9 star points to achieve the 8 point configuration given one of the points slides into two separate ends to complete the star. overall, i love this and plan to make more as the pandemic rages on. thank you for creating this wonderful how-to video.
Thank you so much! I have this in red color and hanging on my shelf!
that's amazing!
Thank you! You make this look so easy. I’m going to try it.
Fabulous tutorial! Just what I needed, thank you x
This 30 min craft project just turned into 3 hours. I’ve been trying to fold it into itself and It doesn’t work. Idk what I did wrong, I followed everything perfectly and tried pinning it together with clips to help it go together. Nothing works. So upset
Cool stuff!
These are awesome… but the black paper made it really hard to see your creases.
Black was probably not the best color option for this demo. It was difficult to see the details.
Thanks! My star has five arms, no idea how to make eight, but it’s pretty anyway.
Está bien padre :)
For Christ sakes - it’s a good thing she practiced looking in the camera. There are about a 1000 other tutorial videos only 2 min long and they don’t make mistakes. And someone should mention that you only need “square paper” to make any star…
Hey, I love the video but I still can't get my parts to stay put once I've folded them into each other, do you have advice?
Obviously, I am not the videographer but since she didn't answer your question I thought I would give you a little advice in case you are still struggling. I use paper clips or clothes pins to hold everything in place until I get the last two joined and then I can remove them and tighten the stars together. Once they are tightened they stay together really well. If your paper is way to thick, such as a really good quality cardstock, you may have trouble just because the folds aren't super crisp. The paper that she used is from Michaels and it is not as thick as some cardstock. I have found when using super thick cardstock, I will occasionally need to add a little glue. I have made these using scrapbooking paper and sometimes the folds are just not tight enough. I glue then because while I know in origami you aren't suppose to use glue, sometimes you just got to do whatever to get it to stick together. Hope this helps.
I wish the paper used was NOT black
