DIY Snowflakes
Do you have a stash of tissue paper from Christmas or a birthday gift? It doesn’t matter if it’s been used before, grab some smooth or wrinkly tissue paper and give these easy but fun crafts a try.
Tissue Paper Snowflake
These make excellent party decorations or they can even add some fun to your bedroom. Choose colours that fit your room and they’ll add a pop of colour to your cozy space.
You’ll Need:
• Tissue paper
• Scissors
• String
Layer several sheets of tissue paper- around eight will do. Accordion fold to the entire length of the sheet and tie your string around the centre of the fold. This is also how you’ll hang the pom poms, so make sure to keep your string long enough for them to dangle from your ceiling. Next, trim the ends by either rounding or pointing them. Just make sure they’re the same on both ends. Now begin to fluff out your pompom to its proper shape. Trim any places that look a bit uneven, and hang it to display. Make a bunch of them in complementary colours…maybe peach, teal, and white, or blue, purple, and green. If you’re planning a Valentine’s Day party, red, white, and pink will do nicely!
