Punch a hold through the top of the star.


Knot the end of your twine.


Thread it through your star.


Hang and admire.

  1. Cute idea! The best part is you can store away and reuse for Christmas/New Year! Such a simple, but cute patriotic decoration... Love!

    1. What a great idea. I hadn't even thought of reusing them for Christmas or New year. Thank you!

  4. So pretty! I'd have to do maple leaves, or beavers or something (not nearly as chic), but I love the idea! :)

  5. Whoops, in the second sentence you wrote "cut hearts" instead of "stars" out of cardstock. And look at you, so on the ball with the 4th of July craft! I might make red, blue, white jello. We'll see ;). You know how much of a slacker I am after that confession post ;)

  6. I love this - and I love that I won't have to drive to Hobby Lobby to get supplies! I think I'll make a little strand of garland to go in our window. Thanks!

  8. Ooh 2 of my fave things - Stars and Twine, makes a perfect decoration! You could even cut them out of red and blue card stock too for a even more patriotic feel.

    Hugs, Estelle xx

  11. Amy, you always know how to make the simplest thing be so pretty! I too like the idea that you can use them for Christmas and New Years...but don't listen to Mel...don't put glitter on them. She's a glitter fiend!
