Glue a star to the top of one of the sticks, then starting with the smallest triangle, glue a small, medium and large rectangle onto the front of the stick as shown in the photo.
Glue the same size of triangle to the back of the stick, directly behind the triangle glued to the front. Offset the triangles as shown in the photo.
Glue a square at the base of the stick.
