(245) Painted Red and Blue.

I hand painted card stock,
let them dry before cutting out the
star points.
It adds a new texture to the designs.

 A white flickering light is in the blue star,
red in the red star.



A fire engine red light.

These take about 30 minutes to cut per point.


Thanks for visiting.

Pink & White

  This is the second custom order: Pink in white.
 I've simplified the cut design, but still takes about
20 minutes per point to cut.It makes for a more durable
star, which shoud last a very long time...
as long as you take care of it.
This is what the small star looks like folded down.
About three inches thick.


Thanks for visiting.

Small Blue.

This is the basic form, folded and glued,

Extra special cut, taking half an hour to cut each point.
All the little shapes have to be weeded out, as clean as possible.

Tissue paper is glued on.

Edges are folded in and glued.

The points are assembled.

The white light is tested.

This is the final result.
It took the same time to assemble this little star, as a large star.

Thanks for visiting.

This is the bubble cut design. Using stickers for decoration.
I'll have a few blank stars that can be personalized at home.



These are some of the kids stars already done.
There are many one of a kind designs.

Red Star.

Half a star with red fabric covering.



Five to six LED tea lights fit inside.
These are a little more delicate than the full star design,
but it holds up well enough.

My wife suggested having it as a table centerpiece,
since it lays flat, and more lights could be included.

Princess Pink.




This is from two weeks back, missed
posting it somehow. I've fallen behind
on production, got a little sidetracked
with Halloween costumes.

Thanks for visiting.

Half Star-Five Lights.

This is the new design for half a star.
It can hang on a wall or window. One to six tea lights
can fit inside. This is showing the basic frame, no cover.


 I have a limited supply of stars, I'm making them
as fast as I can. See you at the next show!
Thanks for visiting.

Hot Pink.

The type is a little tricky on this design,
the L and O has free floating shapes
that has to be individually glued on.


 I am open to new design ideas, and I'm willing to do some
 customized designs. Contact me if you are interested.

Thank you.

I had to put in a couple more.

Super Star!




 I'm finding ways to improve the basic frame design with every star I make.
The refinements and new designs keep it interesting.

I will have a table at OTAFEST LITE, November 13th 2010.
At the University of Calgary from 10 AM to 8 PM. More details to follow.
