Like everyone else I am broke as heck but my family is coming here for Christmas and I wanted more of a magical snow feel. Of course I had to use what I had on hand ... so what do you think of the snow flakes?



I put the snowflakes on fine silver thread and used them like garland around the living room..

A few more.. I like them especially for copy paper and a pair of scissors...

Behind my tree I have these two ugly mirrors so I put snow flakes on them as if it was snowing...

Your tree looks magical surrounded by the snowflakes! A little ingenuity and effort can go a long way.

Great Idea! Your snowflakes are beautiful and sure do add some very extra pretty to your tree. Thanks for sharing with us!
hugs,
Jess

People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

We've been printing out snowflake patterns and cutting them out at our house. I never thought of stringing them like that. So pretty! Thanks for the idea.

Thanks for checking out my silliness! I had fun doing it!

Deb if I had half a brain I would have thought to find a template! I couldn't even remember how to make a regular snowflake. Took me forever to remind myself and then to come up with these....

Jinia - yours are beautiful! If you would see mine without a template... you would think I had the preschoolers do them for me.
