DIY Snowflake Christmas Ornament

Snowflake Christmas ornaments are such a delightful addition to any holiday décor. Their intricate designs and the way they shimmer and sparkle on the tree bring a touch of magic to the season. Whether they're made of traditional white plastic or elegant glass, these ornaments never fail to evoke feelings of joy and whimsy. Hanging them on branches, one by one, is a cherished tradition that symbolizes the uniqueness of every snowflake and adds a festive charm to any home. Decorating with snowflake ornaments brings warmth and nostalgia, reminding us of the beauty and wonder of winter.

Supplies:

  • Puzzle pieces-The amount of pieces depends on the size of your puzzle pieces. I used 16 pieces in total.
  • White paint
  • Glue gun
  • White ribbon
  • Iridescent glitter

Directions:

1. Layout your design. The backside of the pieces will be your top. Use a glue gun to glue 4 puzzle pieces together overlapping the ends.

2. Glue 2 pieces together overlapping the ends. Do this 4 times.

3. Lay glued pieces from step 1 vertically. Attach pieces from step 2 to piece from step 1 forming an X pattern with those pieces.

4. Glue 4 more pieces together like you did in step 1. Glue those to the top of the already glued pieces.

5. Paint the snowflake white and immediately apply glitter.

6. Once the snowflake has dried, determine which end will be your top and forming a loop glue a piece of ribbon to the back of the puzzle piece to make a hook for the ornament to hang.

Younger kids will need an adult to do the gluing. They will have fun painting the snowflake and adding glitter.
