Snowflakes

Start by deciding on how big or small your snowflake will be

Then using the glue draw the outline of the snowflake ( round circle ) with a heavy bead of the white wood glue, to make this easier purchase your glue in a squeeze bottle.

Once you have a heavy outline, create the inside of your snowflake by drawing lines crossing over each other.

Now before it dries sprinkle the gluey flake with the glitter of your choice, we used a silver color.

Give it atleast 12 hours drying time, you will know when it is dry as all the white glue has turned transparent. Trying to remove it from the plastic whilst wet will create it to break so if in doubt give it several more hours, you can speed up the drying time by using a hair dryer also.

Once it is dried peel the snowflake carefully away from the plastic.

You should know have a very glittery snowflake that can be stuck to glass for decorations

Special Tip: try and keep them out of direct sunlight as they tend to crisp up and become to stiff
