Stars wood small

As the central symbol of the Christmas season, the Star of Bethlehem is omnipresent in our customs. It adorns the windows of living rooms and stores, the tablecloth of the festive table and the Christmas tree - and last but not least, the small gift that we joyfully present during Advent or on Christmas Eve.

Perfect objects for such decorative purposes are these small wooden stars, which are made in Finland, the land of 1,000 lakes and vast forests, from birch plywood of regional origin. To be more precise, they are prefabricated, because you can put the finishing touches to them yourself - in a fun craft session, perfect for a winter evening by the light of Advent candles. Bring your children along to the craft round, because assembling the stars is child's play: the individual elements of a star are simply pressed out of the pre-cut template and pinned together. Each element is cut very precisely, each groove milled so cleanly that the assembly is smooth - and the fitted parts sit firmly. As delicate as the stars appear, they are also sturdy, yet you don't even need glue to assemble them.

Secured in their template, the stars fit into flat, plastic-free packaging. This saves on packaging material, in addition to the natural material wood another plus point that distinguishes these stars in terms of sustainability. In your Christmas decorations, they stand out for this with their discreet design, which, for all its purism, creates a fascinating interplay of depth, light and shadow and fits into any of your festive arrangements with decorative ease. And when the Christmas season is over (and you haven't given these little stars as a gift), you can just as easily take them apart again and stow them away to save space - until the next Advent full of little stars.
