I`ve already had many stars, but this one is the most beautiful! I particularly like the drawstring that makes it easy to close the star and open it again to change the light bulb without having to bend or tear the star. I cut the inside edges slightly round, so it also fits on the usual lamp stands provided for this purpose, so you don`t necessarily have to use it hanging. I have it in the bedroom as a bedside lamp. The star pattern creates really beautiful shadow effects on the wall. Really an absolute eye-catcher!
