How to make a Christmas star with ice cream sticks E 1. Put some pink acrylic paint on a plastic palette or small cup . With a small brush, paint the ice cream sticks on both sides, and do not forget the sides.
2. When the paint dries, it is time to assemble the star. First form two triangles with three sticks, using glue to fix it. Then, place one triangle on the other, so that the vertices of one of the triangles are in the center of the other's suits. Put glue where they meet and press so they are well joined.
3. Now that you have your star, it's time to decorate it. So that it is well fixed, it throws glue all over the surface of the star. Do not worry, because the white tail, when dried, will be transparent.
4. Use the decoration that you like best for your star, in GuiaInfantil.com we have chosen some white stars. Put the star on a paper or plastic plate and spread them so that they are well distributed. Let it dry a few moments and shake it slightly so that the leftovers are released.
5. Flip the star. Cut a string the size you prefer to hang the ornament. Put glue on one of the vertices of the star and place the ends of the string. You can reinforce it with a bit of cardboard.
6. You already have a beautiful star! Now, go ahead and try different colors, so you have a very happy tree.
