How to Make a Paper Finnish Star Finnish Paper Star Christmas Craft Project >>>
1. Cross 2 strips of paper exactly centered over each each and glue in place.	2. Glue 2 strips over the horizontal strip 3mm from the center strip. It is important that all sides are even.	3. Weave 2 horizontal strips on each side of the center horizontal strip. These strips cross over the 1st and 3rd strip and are under the middle strip.
4. When all strips are in place it looks like this in the middle.	5. Turn the top right corner to the back so that the backside of it is facing you. At the same time, turn the top right horizontal strip also towards the vertical strip and glue its backside to the backside of the horizontal strip. See the picture for guidance.	6. This is how it looks from a distance. You may want or need to use paper clips to hold the strips together while the glue is drying.
7. Turn the piece clockwise and do step 5 to each of the next 3 corners.	8. When finished, the piece looks like this. This is now the first half of the star.	9. With the remaining 6 strips do the same steps over again. You will then have 2 halves that are ready to be put together.
10. Lay the 2 halves over each other with the rounded (curved) sides to the inside and each of the loops are laying over a strip from the other half.	11. Lay each strip from one star half inside the curved loop from the other star half. Pull the strip up far enough so that the corner point of the loop touches the straight line of the strip.	12. That will cause an overlap that will be cut away later. Glue these strips to the loops.
13. Once all of the edges are glued on, this is how the star looks. The overlaps now get cut away from each side of the 8 points.	14. Follow along the point of the curved loop and cut exactly against this line. This is how the finished star looks.
