- Put the star template aside and stick the other templates onto the back of your gold vinyl with the spray adhesive. Use a craft knife and scissors to carefully cut the images out. Set aside.
- Trace the star shape onto the pine plank. Secure it in place with G-clamps and cut the shapes out with a jigsaw.
- Drill a hole in one of the points on each star.
- Sand the edges smooth.
- Mix the Woodoc COLOURS into the Water-Borne FLOOR and paint the stars with two coats on both sides, letting the first coat dry before applying the second.

- Tie a ribbon through the hole you made in step 4 and hang your stars in place.
