I've been on the look-out for a barn star at a good price to hang in my kitchen. When I saw this one on clearance for $4, I knew it would do just the job. Afterall, I only needed it for it's shape, not it's fantastic good looks. :)
With a coat of oil rubbed bronze spray paint and a bit of sanding, it now looks like this. Better.
Now take a look at the star Heidi made! I'm pretty sure that eventually my star will end up looking like this. Probably sooner than later. I love the burlap and the ribbon. Love it, love it! I realize that by showing you this that my newly painted star looks like the before picture, but I'm a big girl and can accept that. :)

Tracy's Trinkets and Treasures has a star out of paper that you won't believe. Trust me. This star would make a really cute Christmas tree ornament.
Carrie at Dittle-Dattle took a cheap Wal-mart bookcase and transformed it into something worth looking at for not a lot of money. She wrote up a very detailed tutorial on exactly how to do it and what you'll need.
