Five pointed stars, rounded stars, small stars, extra large stars, and so much more! This collection of free printable star templates has it all!
Designing these free printable star templates was so much fun! When I first decided to write this post, I had no idea just how many star printables I would end up creating! This has got to be the most comprehensive collection of star templates and patterns on the web. Scroll down to check out the previews and I think you’ll agree!
All of these star patterns are free for personal and classroom use. If you’d like to share them, please link to or share this page, not the individual files. All the star printables are available for download straight from this page with no sign-up reacquired, but…

A few words about the printables
First, I wanted to let you know how the stars are measured. They’re not square – the given measurement is based on the height of the star, which is slightly greater than the width.
Second, I want to encourage you to consider investing in a star punch if you anticipate needing a lot of a smallish size star. The printables do to down to 1″, but cuttings lots of small stars quickly becomes tedious. Below I’m listing a variety of star punches, including a set with a heavy duty 1″ star punch, a 2″ star punch, and a 3.5″ star punch. They are seriously worth the investment if you need a lot of stars!
Are you a teacher or a parent? If so, you need a free Ebates account ASAP! (They’re called Rakuten now, but same thing.) Ebates gives you cash back with a zillion different online retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, Lego, Crayola, and more. If I’d signed up when I first learned about them years ago, I’d have earned hundreds in cash back by now!
5 point star printable templates
Let’s start with the traditional five pointed star! Just like with the circle templates, I’m arranging them in order from largest to smallest.
I’ve made stars in .5″ increments from 1 inch to 8 inches, then there are is also a special 10 inch star template and an extra large 12 inch star template. The larger templates require some tape – you need to piece together two or more pieces – but they’re very easy to use and perfect for larger things like posters or classroom wall decorations.
This template is only half of the star. Either print two copies and tape them together, or simply trace the first side, flip the pattern, then trace the second side. Printing two copies and taping them together along the midline is the best way to make sure your star is perfect!
12 inch extra large star template
This template has two pages. Print and cut them both, then align the straight edges so they overlap. The circles should meet. Tape in place, trace, then flip the template to trace the second side. You an also print a second set of the templates and tape all four sheets together for a solid 12″ star pattern to trace!

Geometric Stars
For a classic American flag look, you’ll want these geometric stars. They’re available in .5″ size increments from 1″-8″. There’s also a 10″ option.
These American flag stars are different from the stars above because the shoulders are flat instead of sloping (if that makes sense!). They’re the right templates for the job if you want to make accurate-looking flags for any nationality – to the best of my knowledge, this is the style of star all flags use.

Rounded Star Templates
I couldn’t resist making a cute rounded star template! These kawaii stars are also available in .5″ steps from 1 inch up to 8 inches. These stars are great for anytime you want a cutter, softer star, like for a preschool or kindergarten classroom.
Again, you can download all of these rounded star shapes in one PDF in the member’s only resource library!
Don’t lose track of these star shapes! Pin them now!
