How to Set Up at Home

Setup is simple. You just need your star, a light kit, and a safe space to shine.


1. Unfold the star

To open your star shaped lantern, hold the star flat, place one hand inside one of the outermost points and gently ease the point of the star outwards.

2. Open Out Each Point

With the remaining points of the star repeat this action. Ensure that each point is opened out before continuing on to the next.

3. Tie Together

Using the two pieces of cord, gently bring the two outermost points together, place over light fitting & tie cords. Avoid direct contact with the light source.

FAQs for Home Users

What kind of bulb should I use?

Paper Starlights are designed to be illuminated using LED bulbs up to 5.5 watts. Ensure bulb doesn’t touch any part of the Starlight. Do not exceed 40 watts.

Can I reuse my star year after year?

Absolutely. Carefully flatten and store it somewhere dry.

Can I use my star with existing fairy lights?

Only if they are LED. Battery operated fairy lights are a great way of illuminating a star without being plugged into the mains.
