How to Make a Paper Star Christmas Ornament Craft for Kids – Printable PDF

Step 1.

First, print out black star template PDF on white card stock. Let stars dry.

If using black construction paper, print out the star outline on white paper and cut out.

Step 2.

Next, cut the stars out. If using black construction paper, trace stars and cut out.

Step 3.

Then, either using the tip of your finger, a pencil eraser, or a cotton swab dip into your choice of paint and make small dots around the outside edge of the star or where ever you want.

Change colors in the next row or when you want. Fill the star with small dots. Let dry.

I found it necessary to hold the paper down with one of my fingers to get better dots.

You can also try toothpicks, small wooden dowels, or dotting tools made for mandalas. I used the dotting tools to make these colorful mandala rocks. They worked the best.
