Stars Lacing Ornaments 9 and 12 Points

Here is a creative way for kids and grownups to share 

Christmas or winter decorating fun with these "gingerbread"

star lacing ornaments. Select 9 or 12 point designs.

Cut 8-9 layers star shapes from card stock and stack, 

glue and press flat while drying overnight to create 

a rigid form sturdy enough for lacing. 

Thread twine or string onto a blunt (tapestry) needle, 

then follow the tutorial stitching guide to produce 

the string-art style lacing shown in the thumbnail images. 

Or stitcher can plan and discover their own design. 

Add twine loop or decorative hook at the selected top (#1) hole. 

Make this a fun family activity to prepare ornaments 

for a tree or swag or to hang on pegs.
