Tissue Paper Snowflake
A simple tissue paper snowflake, designed by Sam
Make this tissue paper snowflake with the kids for a quick and easy
Christmas or winter decoration. It's a classic idea but it never loses its
appeal, and as the kids get older the snowflakes can get more and more complex.
Using tissue paper rather than normal white paper makes it easier for younger
children to cut their designs.
You will need:
Tissue paper in an ‘icy’ colour
Instructions:
Cut a circle of tissue paper. Fold in half. Then fold into 3 so you have a wedge
shape.
Carefully cut small bits out of the edges. Make sure that
you don't cut right the way through the folds!
Unfold to reveal your snowflake!
We make a collection of these and tape them to our window
every Christmas. Using tissue paper makes them translucent in the window, and
very pretty!
You can see quite a few tissue paper snowflakes in this window!
