Here you will find snowflakes Crafts Projects and Activities for Kids. Make cool Winter snowflakes paper cutting crafts with these instructions found below.
Cutting and Folding Paper Snowflakes
Paper snowflakes make beautiful ornaments on a Christmas trees and look really cool when taping it to your windows. They may be made of light yellow, silver, gold, or white paper. Three thicknesses of tissue paper make effective snowflakes. Obtain a square of paper. Fold it in the center, then again in halves. This will divide the paper into fourths, as pictured in figure1. Fold the quarter into 2 thirds, as seen in figure 2. Then sketch the outline of a snowflake as shown in Fig. 3. Open. Instead of sketching an outline you may cut free hand the outline of a star. Make narrow slashes all around the outside to give the star a light airy look. String the snowflakes on a very fine thread. Hang on the branches of the tree.
Instructions for Making Snowflake Placemats
Take a sheet of white paper 8 x 11 inches. Fold it in half, then in half again, and in half once more, making eight thicknesses. Now cut with scissors any design that you choose all around the edges—triangles, half circles, crescents—as shown in the picture above. When the sheet is opened, the effect is lovely. To make a sturdy place mat for the children's tea party, paste this lacy sheet on a sheet of colored construction paper. It is very effective. The children can make a set of these, all with different designs. Figure 8 Eight thicknesses of regular-weight paper are difficult for tiny fingers to cut, but younger children will enjoy doing this with paper napkins and making up their own designs.
Even More Paper Snowflakes Patterns
To make some pretty amazing looking snowflakes, try a different way to cut them. Most snowflakes are made by folding a rectangle piece of paper in half over and over again. This time, use a large bowl to trace a perfect circle. Then cut out the circle, fold it in half, and then fold it in half again, and then one last time until it looks like a slice of piece. Then draw a pattern on it and cut it out. These snowflakes will look like a traditional snowflake and turn out so cool. Decorate your school windows with lots of snowflakes when it is Winter time. Brrrrr....its cold in here. :)
