I love decorating with stars because it is something that you can use all year long. I have been looking for a way to make a large star. This Diy is so quick and simple and you can design it to incorporate with your decor style.
The supplies you will need:
1. Ten plastic shirt hangers
2. Scissors
3. Zip ties
4. Material (this is optional)
The first thing you will do is pair your hangers into groups of 2. You will be joining the two hangers together forming what looks like a triangle. You will secure them in place using zip ties. I just placed zip ties where my hangers overlapped it joined together.
Once you have them joined you will now have 5 pieces to join together to form your star.
You will be overlapping them and then securing them all into place using zip ties.
Once you have your star done you can either glue material onto the star or you can add tinsel. There are so many different ways to get creative and decorate these stars. I will be placing this one that I covered with a large piece of a chenille bedspread on top of my fireplace mantle.
Instead of a star how about a Cross? I dont know how it will work or how many I’m thinking 14 maybe a great yard ornament for Easter or Christmas or just Year around to let everyone see that Jesus is alive and resigns in your home maybe put lights on it.
Use small baby hangers from the dollar store for a smaller one.
My granddaughter and I made the star. We put white garland around the edge and added 2 strings of colored lights. It is beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
I wanted to share a photo but cannot copy it here.

I love to watch The Shabby Tree to get ideas for a few things I like to do at home. Some I am more interested in than some, but still light to watch.
Great start idea! You should get a small set of “side-cutter” pliers or “dykes” to cut the wire ties easier, shorter, neater, and with less wear ant tear on your scissors!
Love your creativity! I’m glad to be back on the saddle again! I need to get my mind going while my husband is waiting for a living donor for a liver lobe. So thankful I came across your post one day!
