There is something satisfying about a star that folds rather than cuts. Each point is created by folding a strip back on itself, so the shape has no sharp edges and the centre stays open, letting a fairy light or a candle glow shine straight through.
Five points, one rhythm
The first point sets the size of all the others. We fold the leaf into a small loop, then repeat the same fold four more times, tucking the final strip under the first to close the circle. Get the first two even and the rest fall into place.

Out of stock until the next season. We fold these in autumn from the year's drier leaves, and the last run sold out before December.
A star is a fold, a loop and a bit of patience. Nothing more.
