<p>A reconfigurable decorative apparatus (10) which has a display position (15) defining a star and a more compact collapsed, or storage position (20) generally defines a rectangular shape. The apparatus is comprised of a plurality of elements (50) pivotably connected to one another at the ends thereof. The members (50) will pivot about connections points (84,86) when the apparatus is moved between its display and storage positions. In the display position (15), the apparatus defines a star (64) having a plurality of projections (68). To move the apparatus from its display (15) to its storage position (20), connections (86,90) between the ends of some of the members are removed to allow the members to pivot about the remainder of the connection points (84,88,92) to a storage position (20). The apparatus may have lights (100) attached thereto for display purposes and will move between its display (15) and storage (20) position with the lights (100) attached. <IMAGE></p> |
