Using a hot glue gun, attach cranberries to the front surface of star, grouping berries tightly together. Continue attaching cranberries around edges of star. Thread ribbon through wire loop on back of star and tie a secure bow. Hang the star from bow. Hang decoration in covered doorway or sheltered area. Decoration will last several days, longer in cooler climates or out of direct sunlight. Discard once berries begin to soften.
