Wishes and messages can be folded into Wishing Stars

A boxed kit to charm young girls through to adults. A wish or message is written on to one of the colourful strips of paper provided, folded into a little origami star and then kept until the wish is fulfilled or given to someone special. Little skill is needed and, once mastered, becomes something of a compulsion!

Features
  • Materials for at least 80 stars
  • Folded star approx. 1.5cm
  • A unique way to give a message
4 for £10 or 10 for £20

Buy these !
These stars are really easy to make once the first couple have been done, you write a message or wish on them and then keep them or give them away, we decided to fill jars with them and give them to loved ones as was the old custom in Japan..... Gorgeous and really satisfying to see your completed stars, I would say anyone from 7 up could make these with a little practise

No fun for us!
These look fab and, in theory, are but the paper is way too slippery to fold properly and just needs to be a tiny bit wider really. The instructions were hopeless - fortunately you can see someone fold them step by step on YouTube!

Wonderful
I brought this for my step - daughter Naomi for Christmas as a stocking filler which I know she will love, she really enjoys making things and this is just that little more special because she can put her wishes in the stars that she will make! :)
Would highly reccommend, fantastic product and value for money.

Perfect presents
I found this kit instore a few years ago and immediatly began to love the stars i created. Everytime i find a piece of scrap paper now i begin folding it into a tiny star. friends and students at my previous school insisted that i make some for everyone. i made 1000 last year! The method is so simple that it can be easily picked up and the knowledge passed on. i intend to buy several kits for friends and family members as they are amazing value for money! even the made up stars themselves make excellent presents and can be easliy strung together to make beautiful decorations. a MUST have this christmas and indeed for the rest of the year!

disappointing
My son asked for these for his birthday so as they looked like a lovely idea and age 6 and over, we bought for our 8 year old. Well, neither my son, myself or my husband could work out how to fold them into stars. Very frustrating and disappointing for all. Shame as love the idea.

These star are totally addictive me and my friend spend hrs on the train constructing them and when we ran out of paper we used old newspapers to give a great effect. they are a bit fiddle to start but when you get the tang of then they are amazing

Impossible
Well I bought ths today hoping to make wishing stars with a group of girl guides.
Both my husband and I have spent the last hour trying to make a tiny star. We even followed several online tutorials.
Impossible all it has done is made me wish I hadn't wasted my money!!
