Snowflake Decorations

This is a simple and quick craft and very effective and long-lasting. You can make a huge stock of these in no time and they will last for ever!

Snowflake Decorations, christmas crafts for kids

You can hang them on the Christmas tree as ornaments, tie them into garlands or mobiles - or, as we did with great effect last year, use tiny pieces of sticky-tack or sticky-tape to fix them to a window.

You will need:

Lacy white paper doilies
Scissors
Laminator or clear contact paper
(Silver or white thread)
(Paper punch)
(Silver or white glitter, or tiny pearlescent stars)

Instructions
The size and shape of your snowflakes will depend on your paper doilies. Aim to cut out parts of the doily to create snowflakes varying in size from about 1inch to 3 inches in diameter.

If you are going to laminate the snowflakes, sandwich them between the two sheets of acetate. You should leave about half an inch between them so that you can cut them out, once laminated,  with a 1/4 inch border all around. If you like you can sprinkled the snowflakes with a little glitter or scatter tiny stars over them before sealing and laminating.

If using contact paper, arrange the snowflakes on the sticky side of one piece as above, decorate with glitter if required, then carefully lay a second piece of contact paper over the top.

If you are going to use the snowflakes as window decorations, all you have to do now is cut around them and attach them to the window.

If you would like to use them as hanging decorations, punch a small hole with a hole punch and thread each snowflake with a short length of silver or white thread.
