About this Product
The Polish Star is a handmade, holiday tradition passed down for over a hundred years. Some other names are jezyk (little hedgehog) or porcupine ball. It really is a fitting name!
I learned this cool art through my maternal grandma. Each Polish Star consists of several steps. Cutting 12 circles, folding and cutting into 8 parts, and the rolling each part into points. The circles are then stacked and threaded, then squished together until it makes a ball, resulting in 96 points!
While these stars were originally made at Christmastime, we can use them year round! This neutral color goes great with any decor, or add a neutral element to your party or shower theme. The old book paper adds such a whimsical vintage look!
This comes on a long string and can be hung, or clip the string off (or tuck it underneath so you have options later) and it can sit on any flat surface, adding a unique texture.
Choose from a 3.5 inch or a 4.5 inch star.
Polish Stars are pretty fragile, so handle it with care.
Your Polish Star with come shipped in a cube box and packaged with care to avoid crushing during shipping.
