Instructions

1

3-D snowflake from a sheet of paper Fold a piece of paperaccordion. Try to ensure that all the folds are even, the same width. While holding the edges of the accordion with your left hand, cut out different shapes on both sides: triangles, semicircles, squares and so on. Having them in different order, you will get a unique pattern and make a beautiful and original snowflake.

Secure one end of the accordion with a stapler andunfold it like a fan. Connect the edges of the workpiece and glue them with PVA glue or fix with a stapler. Attach the ribbon. To the snowflake sparkled and poured, sprinkle it on her hair spray with sparkles.

Crystal SnowflakeTake an experiment,Grow a crystal as a snowflake. Take 3 toothpicks, fold them in the form of rays, center a string with a thread. All the resulting rays are wrapped tightly with a woolen thread for knitting. When you finish wrapping the last toothpick, cut off the yarn, leaving a long tail.

4

Make a concentrated saline solution. To do this, pour boiling water into the container and pour in salt. When it ceases to dissolve, the solution is ready.

Dip into it a design of toothpicks,wrapped in yarn, holding the tail, and leave it in the solution for several hours. Salt immediately begins to settle not the future snowflake. The process is very interesting to observe, so this experience will appeal to adults and children alike. A few hours later the snowflake will be ready, it can be removed and decorated with a Christmas tree or room. However, the longer the billet will be in the saline solution, the more the crystal will turn out, and the snowflake will become formless.

Bulk snowflake from the dough Make a salted dough. Mix the flour and salt, then pour water and vegetable oil into this mixture. Knead the dough. The finished mass should be elastic and not stick to the hands. If the dough is not sufficiently elastic add liquid, and if, on the contrary, it clings to your hands and drags too far, add more flour.

Vlepite from the mass of a variety of snowflakes. Using a cocktail tube, make a hole so that you can then pull the ribbon through it.
