The star is an enduring traditional emblem of Christmas as it often tops Christmas trees. It symbolizes the Star of Bethlehem and it seems like the perfect design element to feature on this special day.

Stars also appear in many country flags, in heraldry and even as sheriffs' badges. They are super to feature in beaded designs for jewelry, accessories and decorations. Make some star earrings, charms or perhaps a key chain ornament with these tutorials. Shown on the left is the gorgeous beaded snowflake star tutorial by Beadjewelrymaking.com.
