With only a few materials and very simple steps, these star ornaments made from Pinnacle Hardware zinc-plated nuts are a great way to add a unique touch to this year’s Christmas decorations or could even make a great gift for friends and family.

STEP 1
Lay out the nuts in a star formation to ensure you have enough nuts and your desired shape.
STEP 2
Using super glue, stick the nuts together. Leave the nuts to dry (see drying/setting instructions on super glue) before moving on to the next step so they don’t fall apart. Make sure you cover any surfaces to avoid getting glue on them.
STEP 3
Once the glue has completely dried, thread your ribbon or twine through one of the holes and tie a knot.
Once your ornaments are complete, you can hang them up on your tree or around the house!
