How to make Snowflake Wall Hangings Step by Step
- Take a white and a pink sheet and cut around 6 to 8 squares of around 10 cm by 10 cm from these two sheets. Make sure you have an equal number of squares from each sheet.
- Next, fold the square sheet into a triangle and draw triangles in ascending order one over the other from the base of this folded triangle.
- Make sure there is a space of around 1 to 1.5 cm in between each triangle.
- Cut these triangles and make sure you leave some space near the apex and it is uncut there.
- Follow this procedure while cutting all the triangles drawn on the folded triangle sheet.
- After you open the cut triangles you will get a square sheet with small squares in ascending order from the center till the periphery.
- Now hold the square sheet with the cut squares in a vertical fashion, making sure you have the apex of the triangles on both sides pointing outwards.
- Next, lift the apex of the triangles on either side and stick them together in an alternate fashion.
- This means you need to stick one square in front and second at the back and so on.
- After you follow this step you will have a part of the snowflake ready.
- Follow the same procedure with the other square sheets.
- Once ready, stick all the portions of the snowflake one by one at the centre next to each other to get one big snowflake ready.
- That’s it, kids! You can punch in some holes at the tip of the snowflakes and tie a thread through it and hang it on your walls or tie up near your windows. Your DIY Snowflake wall hanging is ready.
- You can even use some beads in the thread to make it even more attractive.
Enjoy kids.
