here's the how-to: http://educ.queensu.ca/~fmc/december2004/PuffyStars.html Okay, so I learned to make these little buggers from my roommate, who is a Chinese immigrant. Mine look way better than this...and I was thinking of some cool things that I could do with them...Like add string and make christmas ornaments, add earring things, or string them together to make jewelry...Anyone have any other ideas for what you could use them for? I have maybe 200 so far and there are more being made all the time...
Those are really cute. You can do something similiar with straws too.... http://hosting.mixcat.com/luckystars/frame.html and if you're going to use them at christmas time you might want to do big ones too. Just to add variety... like someone on this thread did http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=313.45 Just an idea.
Both of these are very cute! I'll have to try them out tomorrow. It'll be a change from the flock of swans that I usually end up making when I'm bored.
Think I'd link them together with beads or twine and hang them around my room close to the ceiling. There are fluorescent paints that you could use so they'd show up at night. Maybe even do some type of painting/mural on the paper before you put them together. The ideas are endless....
I'd put them on string and hang em around my room also.. maybe even put em on christmas lights hehehe I love lights
