This poinsettia beaded star was my first Christmas beaded star. And it was so fun! So much so that I followed with a Christmas beaded peyote star: Snowman!

The poinsetta beaded star was:
- crafted in peyote stitch
- approx. 6,700+ beads (delicas)
- approx. 8 colours
- filled with polyester stuffing to keep shape
This was from a paid (download) pattern named “Poinsetta Parade Star”; design by William Weaver. Purchased on Etsy (ACraftersMercantile) in Dec 2018 for A$7.92

Tip:
structured 3D peyote beading like this has a firmer body structure when using Delica beads rather than the round rocailles.
