How to Make Cool Stuff
Today I’m going to show you how to make Origami Boats. When made with waterproof paper like waxed paper or cellophane these Origami Boats will actually float.

You can even add toothpicks to the boat to give the illusion that the boat has oars. So, grab the materials needed for this craft and let’s get started.

These 5 pointed stars are great to use to not only make a flag, but to decorate Christmas trees, packages, boxes, cards, toy crowns, and play costumes. So, grab some paper and a pair of scissors and let’s get started.
