The paper-cutting tutorial of five-pointed star window grilles is as follows

Cut the five-pointed star by hand. First, fold a square piece of paper into a rectangle. Then fold the rectangle in half twice (two fifths each time, one * * *, four fifths), and pay attention to the overlapping edges.

Fold the paper in half, as shown in the figure, fold it four times according to the red line, divide it into five parts, and cut off the excess along the blue line to get the five-pointed star. Handmade was originally a verb phrase, and later it was gradually used as a noun, meaning some interesting small projects or handmade projects made by yourself.

The rise of handcraft stems from people's nostalgia for childhood and yearning for a better life. With the continuous improvement of people's cultural life and higher requirements for spiritual and cultural life, manual and creative DIY and its related peripheral industries are increasingly prosperous, and more and more people are beginning to think about how to integrate manual DIY into their lives.

Some traditional handicraft projects in China, such as paper-cutting and handmade fabrics, are very popular with foreigners, which has given birth to the growing prosperity of the domestic handicraft industry. There are more and more small manual workshops, and many of them have started import and export business, which has made great contributions to improving the domestic employment rate and promoting economic development.
