3D Paper Snowflakes - Holiday craft idea - DIY holiday decorations - How to make tutorial

We are hosting a winter themed event and made giant paper snowflakes to hang above the tables.

Here's how you can make them too!

You can make them much smaller by starting with smaller squares.

Supplies:

Paper (6 sheets)

Scissors

Double sided tape

I used double sided tape to attach.

NOTE: You could also use a stapler or glue. I didn't use either one since you'll see the staples and glue will take a long time too dry.

You need to start with a square piece of paper.

To make a square, take one corner and meet the edge of the paper. Trim excess.

Now you have a large triangle.

Fold it in half to make a smaller triangle.

Have the open end up and cut strips starting from the bottom.

You want to cut the strips almost to the end. (see red lines) Leave a little room at the top trying to keep the same distance left attached at the end and same distance between rows.

NOTE: You can mark it with a ruler if it helps. I just estimated and you couldn't tell unless it's way larger or smaller.

When cutting hold the left side tight and re-adjust as you cut each row. The paper will shift a lot if you are not holding it tight. This is a big step in keeping the rows straight.
