1. If using cookie cutter, cut a star from the styrofoam. If using pattern ask for grown up assistance to cut the star pattern from the styrofoam.
2. Coat one side of the star and the edges with white craft glue and sprinkle with gold or silver glitter. Allow to dry completely then do the same on back side of star.
3. Insert the sipping straw into base of star taking care not to bend the straw. Note: You can also use a straight stick painted your color of choice for the wand. This will be much more sturdy than the straw.
4. Tie the ribbons together at one end and glue the knotted end to the base of the star where the straw or stick has been inserted.
