Each point starts with a square sheet and comes together to create a clean, dimensional star. It’s perfect for beginners or anyone in the mood for a quick, eye-catching decoration. The folds are simple, the assembly is easy, and the finished star works great as part of your seasonal decor. You can stick with a single color for a classic look, or mix five colors to make it more playful or festive, just like I did.
