The nights are drawing in and Christmas is round the corner making it the perfect time of year to think STARS! I love that it gets dark early enough for the kids and I to marvel at the starry skies. These Yarn Wrapped Star Ornaments are super for building fine motor skills and look gorgeous hanging alone or in clusters. You can use your stars to make a bedroom mobile, as colourful Christmas ornaments for the tree or as a craft to go along with a Space themed learning project.<\/p>\n

Wherever you hang your Yarn Wrapped Star Ornaments you can be sure of a wonderful eye catching display!<\/p>\n

These Yarn Wrapped Star Ornaments are made on a popsicle stick frame and I\u2019ve got a super hack to make positioning them fool proof!<\/p>\n

Popsicle sticks are such a cheap kids craft material and they come in a range of sizes and colours too which makes them really versatile. I\u2019ve used brightly coloured craft sticks and yarn in this post but you can of course mix and match colours and sizes in any way you like.<\/p>\n

Before you get started with the Yarn Wrapped Star Ornaments Tutorial you might want to take a peek at some of our other popsicle stick crafts too. Mix \u2018N\u2019 Match Snakes<\/a> have been much loved and are so fun to play with because they actually move! The Chestnut Family<\/a> are lovely puppets to encourage imaginative play. Button Snowflakes<\/a> are wonderful if you are looking for some more pretty ornaments and our Pop Up Bunny<\/a> is total\u00a0cuteness and great for peek a boo games!<\/p>\n
