🎁 Christmas Craft Countdown – Day 21 (November 29)

Craft: “Three Wise Men Star Trail Ornament” 🌟🐪✨

Theme: Following the star that led the Wise Men to Jesus — a symbol of guidance, faith, and worship.

❤️ What You’ll Need:

• Clear plastic or glass ornament

• Black or navy blue cardstock (for silhouettes)

• Gold glitter or fine gold confetti

• Gold paint pen

• Silver or gold ribbon

• Tweezers

• Optional:

  • Mini star charm

  • Small cardstock star of Bethlehem

  • Metallic gold vinyl cutouts

✨ Directions:

1. Create the Silhouettes

Cut small silhouettes of:

• The Three Wise Men

• Three camels

• A small dune landscape

Using navy or black cardstock makes the shapes stand out beautifully.

2. Insert the Scene

• Gently curl the silhouettes and insert them into the ornament.

• Use tweezers to position them so they stand or rest neatly inside.

3. Add the Star Trail

• Sprinkle in gold glitter to represent the shimmering “star trail” in the night sky.

• Optional: Add a tiny gold star inside or glue a star to the front of the ornament.

4. Decorate the Outside

• Use a gold paint pen to draw tiny stars on the outside of the ornament.

• Add a swirl or sparkle around the top to reflect the path the Wise Men followed.

5. Add the Hanging Ribbon

• Loop a gold or silver ribbon through the top and tie into a bow.

• Add a mini star charm if you have one.

6. Display

Hang this ornament somewhere special as a reminder of worship, guidance, and the journey of faith.

✝️ Faith Reflection:

Matthew 2:2 (KJV) —“For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.”

This ornament reflects the moment the Wise Men chose to follow God’s direction — may it inspire us to follow His leading, too.
