Well thought is one thing, actually creating the floor proved to be so much harder than I had expected.
First I made a copy of the floor I am going to fit the wooden masterpiece into with card so that I can slot the floor out if ever there is a problem with the lights and need access to wires.
Then I mapped out my star. That's when the hard bit started! I began cutting and sticking matches until I had the star shape then framed the edges to tidy it up. I created a square around the star then filed it with a slanted pattern.
I added two diagonal pieces to break up the matchsticks then added the rest on.
So far I am happy with the way it has turned out. I will sand, stain and varnish tomorrow.
