Yuletide Star – Directions
UPDATE: Check the comments for directions (regular and a video) in English. 🙂
I got a request on posting directions on how to make the fancy star Anna assembled for herself and Bjarki (who’s said ‘thanks’ now). Sadly I haven’t managed to squeeze the time out of Anna’s busy schedule (of playing with her friends, and not being at home, ever) to get her to show me how it’s done, but Anna Sr. (Finnur’s mom) found directions in her collection of stuff and let me photograph them (with my phone, sorry for the crappy quality). Click on the images for a larger version:

The step-by-step directions. I haven’t verified them myself, but I do know that Anna used a small stapler to fasten the ‘arms’ together (the scotch tape kept coming undone). And if you want to see the real thing, here’s the pdf from Fréttablaðið, 9 December 2009 (scroll down almost half way into the paper for page 6 of the ‘Leikur í höndum’ extra).
Happy Star-Making! 🙂
