Instructions – How to Make These Easy Snowflakes From Popsicle Sticks
Let’s get crafty with our children this winter! We will show you how to make popsicle stick snowflakes that sparkle
Using the craft glue or glue gun, attach two of the popsicle sticks together so they make a “+”.
Repeat with the remaining two popsicle sticks.
Now attach the two “+” pieces but rotate one so they make a snowflake.
Next, place the snowflake on a paper plate or parchment paper. Using a foam brush and Mod Podge or the spray adhesive, cover the snowflake completely.
Coat the snowflake liberally with the glitter and then allow it to dry completely.
Using the craft glue or glue gun, attach your pom pom to the middle of the snowflake.
Cut a 6” length of ribbon or twine, form a loop and using the craft glue or glue gun, attach to the top of the back side of the craft stick. Allow to dry completely before hanging.
And you’re done! Don’t they look cute, and of course so sparkly!
This easy craft will look adorable on your child’s Christmas tree, or in any other winter wonderland.
What a great way to get the kids involved in decorating for the holidays! Snowflakes are such a fun topic to learn about, and making a beautiful craft is a great way to tie in this theme for your Winter learning activities.
