Poking around Pinterest you can find all sorts of ways to make snowflakes — paper, popsicle sticks, beads, cotton swabs, coffee fliters, pasta, yarn….. the list seems endless. Basically if you can craft with it, there’s a way to make a snowflake.
I’ve tried a lot of techniques over the years (like the pipe cleaner ones to the right) — I have a thing about snowflakes — but many don’t end up looking like snowflakes; some look like stars and some look like… well, not snowflakes.
Here’s a few of my favourites that do seem to come out right, plus one I’ll need to learn crochet to try:
- giant snowflakes from craft (popsicle) sticks from Fab DIY
- easy crochet snowflakes from Flower Girl Cottage
- glue gun snowflake window clings from We Lived Happily Ever After
- pipe cleaner snowflakes care of Martha Stewart
- fusible bead snowflakes (aka Perler bead, Hama bead) from tuts+
