2.) Garland: Use thick white paper. Cut a lot of stars and snowflakes with different sizes, add a thread to each star / snowflake. Cut a red and white ribbon to the desired lenght and sew the stars to that ribbon.
3.) Cut the stars from the metallic paper, add thread and use the stars as Christmas tree ornaments.
4.) Try to cut stars from paper you have at home: newsletter or brown grocery bag for example looks great
