How to make a Table Centerpiece with book page STARS

I know Independence Day is over now but I'm not quite ready for red, white, blue and stars to go away yet.  Stars are such a symbolic image for our great nation and I still want to do one more project to celebrate them.  I whipped up a quick idea for a table centerpiece

I love to decorate and craft.  But when I make something, I like it to be useful.  And it cannot interfere with our life.  When I was thinking about table centerpieces, I had to keep all of that in mind because no centerpiece will work if it prevents us from eating at our table.

How to make Book Page Star Jars

This book page star table centerpiece was very easy and inexpensive to whip up.  It only required supplies I had on hand and probably took a total of 15 minutes to do.  Its neutral colored so it can stay up and displayed for any month and season.
