Waldorf Window Stars Winter Craft Tutorial

These beautiful eight-pointed stars are easy to make and it's fun to decorate your windows with them during the winter months.

What You Need:

  • 8 square sheets of kite paper (or any paper, but kite paper is translucent so when you hang the stars in your window they have a beautiful stained glass window effect)
  • Glue stick

How to Make:

  • Fold each corner into the centre

  • Fold two corners in to line up with the centre line so you end up with a kite shape. This is your first star point!
  • Repeat all the steps above so that all eight pieces are folded into star points.

  • Put a dab of glue on the bottom of the right side of each star point (make sure you glue with the folded sides facing up toward you).

  • Continue and pause before you glue the last point.

  • Before you glue the last point, tuck it under the point in front of it.  This will assure your pattern is just right when you turn it over.

  • Lift each of the flaps on the left sides and glue down with a dab of glue.
  • Turn over and admire your beautiful eight-pointed star! Hot diggity, you are amazing!

Not only are these window stars a wonderful craft to do with your children, but they also make beautiful gifts. We often make tiny eight-pointed stars out of old watercolour paintings and attach them onto gifts with a little string on the end so they can be hung on a tree or as decorations around the home.
