How to make it
Keep sequins and buttons away from any younger siblings under 3.
1Paint the sticks
Paint all 4 sticks white or blue on one side. Let them dry for about 15 minutes.
2Make a plus sign
Lay 2 sticks in a plus shape. Put a dot of tacky glue where they cross and press for a slow count of 10.
3Add the X
Glue the other 2 sticks on top in an X shape. Now you have 8 points, like a star.
4Decorate the points
Glue sequins, buttons or glitter along each stick. Keep the middle simple so it does not get heavy.
5Let it dry flat
Leave it on wax paper for 1 hour. It will look wobbly until the glue sets. Normal.
6Tie on a loop
Tie a string around one point and knot it. Hang it on the tree or in a window.
Tacky glue grabs faster than school glue. If you only have school glue, hold each joint with a clothespin while it dries.
