Description EDIT 3.02.08:// [ FAQ ]
Q: Where do you buy paper star strips?

A: You can for sure buy paper strips at any Korean stationery store. You can probably even buy online? If you really can't find them, however, you can make your own; 15 x 1 cm paper strips.

Q: Help! I'm stuck! I don't get this?
A: Basically you're trying to use up the whole entire strip of paper until it runs out. What you're basically doing is this: take a flap, fold it over. Take the other flap, fold it over. Take the other flap, fold that... Tuck them under whenever you can as shown in step 4. Good luck!


OMG HUGE FILE D:


I sort of made a mistake by making this tutorial with those paper strips -.-;; I've always used 15 x 1 cm paper strips to make paper stars but these new ones are like... 19 x 1 cm D: If you use 15 x 1 cm paper strips, you do NOT need to cut! It should be perfect and you should be able to use it all :> I didn't know this but the new paper strips I've bought are strips used for both paper stars and paper hearts x_x;; oi.


Not the best tutorial out there...
probably one of the worst, rofl.

I never take requests--ever! But this is the one time I've fallen for it D: Ohnoes! Dx

GOOD LUCK!

Look forward to ANOTHER tutorial soon!! <3<3
For what? D: It's a secret! >:[

RainCookie In reply to JuApples [2010-08-10 21:29:16 +0000 UTC]

1> From one of those huge free font libraries. I forgot where tho, its been a few years D;
I don't have those fonts anymoreeee :(

2> They're little origami things that can hold little hershey kisses in them! Sort of like a pretty fruit, you know? :D

This problem mostly occurs if you folded your pentagon too tight or too loose :>

twilight1824 In reply to ??? [2010-07-16 20:56:48 +0000 UTC]

so CUTE. personally, i'd rather fold paper cranes. it's easier and there is a myth that gives you one wish after you complete 1000. cool.
