Julstjärnor, or Christmas stars, are decorative ornaments commonly used during the holiday season in many cultures. They are often made from paper or other lightweight materials and are typically star-shaped, symbolizing the Star of Bethlehem that guided the Wise Men to the birthplace of Jesus Christ. These stars are usually hung in windows or from ceilings, creating a festive atmosphere. In Sweden, Julstjärnor are particularly popular and are often crafted in various colors and designs, adding to the charm of Christmas decorations throughout the country.
