Day 13: Harlem Macaroni Kid Christmas Countdown

Family Traditions: Snowflake Decorations

December 12, 2022

You'll need a long cardboard tube, plus glue and thread, to make these festive decorations.


Step 1: Press the tube flat then cut off twelve loop-shaped strips. Each one needs to be around as wide as your finger

Step 2: Open out six of the loops a little. Glue two together

Step 3: Glue on four more, so it looks like a snowflake. Let the glue dry

Step 4: Gold all the remaining loops in half

Step 5: Glue both sides of each folded shape onto the snowflake. Let it dry. Tie thread through one of the loops to hang it up.
