A friend of mine makes a snowflake every year to give to friends/family. I have 8 of them, so far. Snowflakes make wonderful 'small' gifts ... include with a card, attach to a gift as part of the gift wrapping, or just give to someone who means something to you (she gave snowflakes to the nurses she became friends with while going through chemo).

This particular pattern is quite beautiful, IMO - the directions are outstanding.

I used to make those - they look very pretty on the tree. I stiffened them with a mixture of Elmer’s and water, pinned them down on wax paper over an old-fashioned cardboard cutting board, and sprinkled fine sparkles on them.

They make up in a flash; easy to do, and you can make many of them while you’re watching TV.
