 This star is on my christmas tree. My girlfriend hated the flashing lights on the one I originally had so we made one with foil and cardboard and a paperclip.

I remember when I had one of those. Never thought of using a paperclip to hold it on. Hope you're able to move on someday.

The paper lip is a nice tou;ch, but I would have liked this if it were in better focus
