Learn how to make an Origami Lucky Star, these cute little origami stars are made with strips of paper and are very easy to make.
These little origami puffy stars make great gifts, you can make lots of them and display them in jars or other containers. Or you can also use these to make pretty origami jewellery, or hang them up.
I’m a bit late to the origami lucky star folding club. Having only just discovered how fun making these little stars are, I folded some many years ago and found it fiddly and annoying.
I actually decided to make them last week when I was feeling a bit down and stressed. They are relaxing to make – satisfying and they distract your mind. So if you need something distracting but productive, maybe try these.
I’ve got a free download of the diagram for you here.

I HATE making these. I have never successfully made one because they always look squished. I can made moderately difficult origami, but I cannot make the most basic little origami star ever.
I love making these! I have a full jar on my desk. Some turn out a little smushed but overall these are fun to make and a cute decoration!
You have a lot of patience to make a whole jar! 🙂
I’ve always wanted to make some of these, I remember seeing jars filled with them. Wonder how long that would take though….
Mine is horrible! It looks like a squashed origami star!?
oh no! A few of mine ended up a bit weird, maybe try it again and take special care at about 1:09 in the video.. that part will determine the overall shape of the star 🙂 ⭐️
These are addictive little folding stars! I think a strung garland of these would look pretty sweet on a little accent tree.
