4.) After the paint dries, cut the newspaper into pieces about 4-5cms wide
5.) Take a wooden pencil and roll the paper around it to make paper straws (make sure you glue the whole straw, not just the end, so when you trim them later they won’t unravel)
6.) Lay down the stem onto a table, and glue the star onto the top of stem.
7.) Cut down the straws so all seven straws line up into a triangle shape and glue straws to the stem, equal distance away from each other. Leave space at the bottom of the stem to show
