A real colored five-pointed origami star will be obtained from five modules.
Stars do not only for beauty. Sometimes they become formidable weapons. For example, shuriken is an iron throwing star, an obligatory attribute of oriental militants. We will make it out of paper according to the scheme shown in the photo.
What is the Star of Bethlehem? This is a celestial phenomenon, which is called a star. It is not known for certain what exactly the Magi could see. It is believed that it was a comet. But be that as it may, the Star of Bethlehem in the Christian religion is a symbol of the Nativity of Christ. It is one of the main attributes of the Christmas holidays. It is customary to decorate the top of the Christmas tree with it. In addition, this symbol is used in decorating church utensils, iconostases, as well as temple structures. This article will consider several workshops for making this craft from different materials.
The most popular and easiest way to create the Star of Bethlehem is to use paper. You can take plain white or colored paper and cut out two identical squares. Then the sheets are folded diagonally, horizontally and vertically.
A sheet of paper is unfolded and four cuts are made on four sides of the square. The cuts should be equal to half the distance from the edge to the middle. Now a triangle is bent to each corner on both sides. You should get eight curved triangles. The result is four beams.
In each beam, one side is smeared with glue, and the second is glued on top with an overlap. Due to this, the star acquires volume.
The same manipulations are carried out with the second sheet of paper. When both halves are ready, they are glued together so that each ray is separate. It turns out an eight-pointed star.
Another way to make a star out of paper is origami.
A sheet of paper is folded diagonally, unfolded and the side corners are folded to the intended line. Then do the same from below. You should get a figure resembling a rhombus. Now, in turn, bend the top of the figure, first to the right corner, then to the left. The result is two crossed lines.
The sheet is turned over and the lower corner is now folded up and to the left along the marked lines. Then it is straightened and the upper corner is bent. The resulting figure is given a flat shape, smoothing along the middle lines. You need to make eight such blanks. Finished elements are interconnected, hiding a smaller angle inside the next part.
The next way to create the Star of Bethlehem is quite unusual. For manufacturing you will need:
All sheets are cut in half along the long edge. Each sheet is twisted so that one end is narrow and the other is slightly wider. It is necessary to twist the sheet tightly enough and smear the free edge with glue. Otherwise, the sheet will unwind.
When all the sheets have turned into rays, they begin to collect the star. To do this, take three beams and fasten them with a stapler, getting a kind of fan. After all the fans are collected on a thread and pulled together well. The thread is tied into a strong knot. The result is a star in the form of a ball. Such a star can be hung from the ceiling.
For room decor, this simple option for creating a Christmas star is suitable. For manufacturing, you will need to take a star template and circle it on cardboard. Then step back from the edge 1.5-2 cm (depending on the initial size of the star) and draw another smaller star on the inside. Next, the workpiece is cut out. It remains to wind the twine tighter and the star is ready. If desired, the star can be decorated with additional decor.
To work, you will need the following tools: scissors, pencil, compasses, knife, glue or glue gun. From materials: colored paper, polystyrene, decorative elements.
Start by building a template. Take a sheet of foam and draw two circles with one center. One is bigger, the second is twice as small. Next, eight rays are drawn at an equal distance from each other. The smaller circle turned out to be divided by rays into segments. These segments must be divided in half. The resulting points will become the bases of the rays. These points are connected to the edge of the rays on the outer circle. Next, the star is cut out.
It remains to decorate the star as you wish. For example, you can cut out multi-colored rays and the middle from colored paper. You can highlight the middle by pasting its contour with pieces of foil. The rays of the star are decorated with beads, rhinestones, bells, New Year's tinsel. Such a star will look great on the door, additionally decorated with sprigs of spruce.
There are a lot of ways to make the Star of Bethlehem. If you wish, you can come up with something unusual on your own or use unusual materials to create your own Christmas masterpiece. In any case, it is better to experiment with children. This will help to introduce them to centuries-old traditions and just have a good time with the whole family.

But today we will not talk about the Nativity of Christ at all, but rather about how to make a star out of paper, if there is nothing to crown the dome of the Christmas tree. Or about how to make 3D stars of different sizes for an original bedroom pendant. Small ones can be folded from foil, and large ones can be painted with acrylic paints and sprinkled with sparkles - you get a luxurious interior decoration.
It will also be useful for you to learn how to make a three-dimensional paper star for an action-packed ninja game. Decide for yourself how to use a paper star: a small one should be hung on a Christmas tree, and let a large three-dimensional star, for example, adequately decorate the top of the Christmas symbol. Or let it hang from the ceiling, being surrounded by origami balls, symbolizing all the planets of the solar system. Let's start, perhaps, with the simplest scheme - a four-pointed star. This scheme for beginners will please many with its simplicity, so ...
Our scheme 1 invites you to make a shuriken star - a ninja smashing weapon (By the way, you and your little warrior may be interested). However, you can endow these paper stars with your own semantic variations. You will need 4 square-shaped sheets to assemble individual modules, from which you will get a modular origami shuriken star. Consider fig. 1 take a closer look and then proceed step by step:
Shuriken, as you can see, has developed into one or two. But the classic origami invites you to make a heavenly body from a single square sheet without connecting blocks. How to make a five-pointed star out of paper, will tell our detailed review below and fig. 2:
When adding curves, move aside one vertex from the front side and the second from the back side - a five-pointed origami star in your hands. And the voluminous five-pointed pentagram is the result of the adjustment of the “rays”. Bend them so that from a distance the craft looks voluminous.
A Christmas star from a pre-prepared paper square folds in a peculiar way, but it does not bode well for you. Folding an eight-pointed star from separate modules will be more difficult, but we will soon conquer this peak. And the hexagonal star folds like this:
How to make a three-dimensional paper star? An eight-pointed modular star made of colored paper is folded according to the principle of the designer. We have to make a complex luminary from separate blocks, each of which is folded like parts for a shuriken (see Fig. 4).
Such a product is performed in the same way as a shuriken (use Fig. 4 and folding patterns of a four-vertex shuriken - Fig. 1), although the effective octagram takes a little more time. But by folding such a thing with your own hands, you will truly surprise your relatives and friends. Surprised by the new level of your capabilities? Then rather tell your family how you did all this, because everyone will be pleased to see their personal contribution to decorating rooms for the upcoming holiday. Can you show them the diagrams?
A star is an indispensable element of New Year's or Christmas decoration. Five-pointed stars adorn postcards and posters dedicated to Victory Day. They are perhaps the most characteristic detail of the Moscow Kremlin. You can mold a star from plasticine, plastic, clay and even marzipan.

Instruction
A star can have a different number of rays. They can even be of different lengths and thicknesses, such as firework stars. In a five-pointed star, all the rays are the same. Prepare plasticine and tear off 5 approximately identical pieces from it. Plasticine must first knead a little.
Take 1 piece of plasticine and roll out a thick "sausage" from it. It is better to do this between the palms, and not on the plank. While you are sculpting, clay maintains a constant temperature and remains pliable. Roll out 4 more of the same "sausages".
From each "sausage" make a "carrot" - a long cone. This shape is achieved if, while rolling, a little more pressure is applied to one edge of the workpiece. All "carrots" should be approximately the same in length and thickness. If necessary, remove excess plasticine with a stack.
Lay out the "carrots" as the rays of the star will be located, that is, in a circle, with a thick end towards the center. Remember roughly their position. Blind together 2 fragments, keeping the intended angle between them. It's okay if it turns out a little more or a little less than necessary. You will correct your creation before finishing the work. Stick the rest of the beams to the workpiece.
Flatten the star between your palms. Carefully smooth out the junctions of the beams. To do this, you can, for example, slightly wet the pale with water and draw it along the desired lines with light pressure. You can make the rays and convex. Mark the middle line of each beam with a stack. Carefully pinch the plasticine with your fingers, moving along this line from the end of the beam to the center.
Small stars can be done differently. Blind a round "cake". If the plasticine is already soft enough, just flatten it between your palms. Cut out a star from paper. Put it on the "flat cake" and cut out the stack. In the same way, you can make stars from marzipan.
Stars for a festive panel for Christmas or Victory Day can be painted. Cover your creation with an even layer of water-based paint, and then paint with gouache or acrylic paints and varnish. If your panel has several elements, then first make the base. Stick pieces of plasticine on a cardboard or plywood rectangle so that the layer is at least 0.5 cm. What color the plasticine is does not matter in this case. Make a composition, blind all the elements together. Cover with water-based paint and paint.
