Paper snowflakes

Snowflakes, beautiful snowfalkes.  Snowflakes form in a variety of different shapes. We will make some paper snowflakes here. You can stick them together and make them into a garland or stick them  on your windowpanes.
Making these snowflakes are as easy as ABC as they use alphabets to make them.
This is the basic step that we will need to make all our snowflakes. 
Please note that I have used printer paper, that mostly all of us have.

Lets start.
 Take the printer paper and fold it to form triangle. Trim extra paper.
Mark 3.2 inches from one end and make a fold from another.
Make a second fold. Again trim extra paper so that we now have a triangle.
 
Lets learn how to cut M or 3. We cut one tip of M like a V and then another end of M like another V. Do the same with W or 3. We break these shapes into two parts.

Yoo Hoo! We are ready to make our super duper easy, kids friendly snowflakes. Every one will be so impressed that you could make it make it all by yourself. Don't tell them it was as easy as ABC ;-).

    1. We take the widest side of the triangle. Mine is a printer paper. I have marked 3.2 inches from one end. Then I took the tip of other end and folded it to that point. . We take the other end and fold it over that. It should look like middle picture in step two. Now we cut off the tail to make it the triangle we want.

      Wish you a Merry Christmas !!
