You will need:
2 or more different colors of felt poster board 2 or more colors of thin ribbon hot glue stapler
Draw and cut out a five point star that is about 3 or 4 inches across in size. The easiest way to do this is with a ruler and pencil. Draw and cut out a second star that is slightly smaller than the first one. Take your two stars and trace each one on a different color of felt. Cut the felt stars out and glue them to the poster board. Cut three 6 to 8 inch strands of ribbon out of one color and three strands out of a second color. You can coordinate your ribbon colors with your felt colors if you wish. Gather your ribbon strands together at one end and staple them together. If you do not have a stapler handy just wrap a piece of tape around the ends. Place the stapled end of the ribbon in the center of the biggest star and glue into place. Center the small star on top of the large one and glue into place. The ribbon ends should be glued in between the two stars. I like to use hot glue because it dries so quickly and holds everything in place much better but you have to surpervise children when using hot glue so they will not get burned by the gun. Punch a hold in the top of the star. Thread a short piece of ribbon through and tie the ends together to make a loop for hanging. You have a shooting star. Be creative in the colors of felt and ribbon that you choose for your star.
