- In the center, draw a Star of David: one triangle pointing up and one pointing down.
- On the rim, add four little circles for rivets: top, bottom and both sides.
- Add one more rivet between each pair, so there are eight rivets around the rim.
- Go over all the lines in black. The shield is ready for the Hanukkah party!
