To open, hold star flat, place one hand inside one of the outer points and gently ease point outwards.
Carefully repeat the first step with remaining points. Ensure each point is fully open before moving on to the next.
Using the two cords provided, gently bring the two outer points together. If illuminating, place over light source and tie cords firmly to secure in place. Do not pull the cords to open your star.
For use indoors and in sheltered outdoor environments
Here are our favourite ways to bring your star to life:
💡 Use as a main light: Simply tie the star over an existing pendant light fitting for a magical ceiling lampshade.
🔌 With our USB LED Lighting Kit: For a plug-and-play solution, pair with our exclusive low-energy USB LED Kit—complete with 4 metres of cable and a warm white glow. Perfect for flexible placement and reusable year after year.
✨ With fairy lights: Create a whimsical effect by inserting battery-operated for subtle twinkle and texture.
All our stars fold flat and come with a strong cotton tie for easy hanging. Please note: lights sold separately.
Recommended for use with LED bulbs up to 7 watts. Ensure bulb doesn’t touch any part of the Starlight. Do not exceed 40 watts.
Do not use near naked flame. Make sure all electrical fittings are safe before use.
Can be used with battery operated LED “string” or ‘fairy’ lights, providing they conform to the appropriate safety standards, and no part of the unit produces heat.
