Crafty Idea - Sparkly Snowflakes
A simple twist to the ever-famous paper snowflake! Great for kids who are too young to cut an ornate snowflake - you do the cutting, they do the sprinkling!
Supplies: white paper, scissors, glue, sugar, sponge or cotton swab, string
1. Fold your square or round piece of paper in half, then again into quarters. Use scissors to cut small shapes out of the paper. When you open your paper you will have a snowflake shape
2. Mix one part glue with one part water to make a thin glue. Place snowflake on a vinyl placemat or splashmat, and dab glue onto snowflake
3. Sprinkle sugar over glue covered area. Flip your snowflake, dab with glue, and sprinkle again. Let your snowflake dry by hanging or clipping it up, or by letting it rest over the lid of a cup or bowl.
