Paper Strip Snowflake Craft
Winter is such a nice season because of all the beautiful snow! My favourite part of winter is bundling up and dancing around in the snow so I just couldn't resist making a snowflake paper strip craft... *giggle*
This craft is very simple and very fun. The paper strips add a neat pattern and allow children to be super creative!
Materials:
- paper & printer,
- colourful construction paper,
- glue,
- scissors
Craft Instructions:
- Print out the template or draw your own snowflake on plain paper.
Cut out several strips of colourful construction paper.
- Try to use at least two colours in order to make a pattern.
- They don't all need to be the same width so don't worry too much about making perfect strips.
Flip the paper with the snowflake drawing upside down.- Use a glue stick to glue the construction paper strips on the snowflake in a pattern.
Flip the paper back over so you can see the template line and cut out the snowflake.
Craft Templates:
- After printing, close the template window to return to the main page.
- If the template doesn’t fit on one page, adjust your printer margins:
• In most browsers: Print → More settings → Margins → Minimum
• Or use Page Setup / Printer Setup in your printer dialog
