1. Take your triangle template and trace around it onto the transparent paper. Mark the hole in the middle of the triangle. It will be needed later as a guidance mark. Cut out the triangle.
* Fold the first point up to the center of the edge across from it. The picture shows how it should look.

|
|
2. Repeat from * for the other two points. Open the triangle again. Bend the first point up and then fold it down at the marked center point. It should look like the example in the picture.

|
3. Repeat step six with the other 2 points. Now the star should look like this.
|
|
|
4. Tuck the left side of the left bottom triangle under the right side of point to the left of it.
|
|
|
5. This will secure the star so that it does not open again.
