Paper Bag Stars

This craft is fun for the whole family!

What you will need;

  • paper bags (I chose to use the lunch bag size you can have them bigger if you use yard waste bags)

  • scissors

  • glue (I’m using hot because I have it on hand, normal will work too)

  • hole punch (if you have one the scissors work for what we need it for as well)

  • ribbon or string

  • any stamps or paints you would like to use

How they are made;

Count out the number of bags you will need for one star (I used 8 lunch bags for one star but you might need more or less depending on the size you choose).

To glue the bags together glue the bottoms and the middle of the bags.

Stack them together (in the same direction) but don’t add glue to the final side.

Once you have the desired number of bags stacked, cut the tops to make a point (check here to see if you have enough bags, if not add more here.

Cut shapes into the bag if desired at this point.

Once cut to how you wish add glue to the final side to create the star.

Punch or cut a hole where you wish the top of the star to be and add the ribbon (or string).

Hang it up and enjoy!
