paper snowflakes

Simple snowflakes for kids

#1 From paper strips

The simplest paper snowflake that can be made with preschool children. Pre-cut paper strips must be glued with an asterisk, and then each strip should be decorated. Anything will be used: felt-tip pens, pencils, stickers, paints, etc.

#2 From handprint

And here is another simple and original way to make a snowflake with children. Cut out 6 handprints from paper. Then cut out patterns on them, glue them together and decorate.

#3 From twisted paper strips

And here is another easy way to make a snowflake. Wrap 6 paper strips on felt-tip pens and leave for several hours. Then take them off and staple them together. Decorate the center with paper circles. Snowflake is ready!

Snowflake cutters

When it comes to snowflake crafts, the first thing that comes to mind is cutouts. A white sheet of paper or a napkin is folded into a triangle in a special way, and then an intricate pattern is cut out of the triangle. After the sheet unfolds and we get a patterned snowflake.

Without some experience, cutting a really carved snowflake is quite difficult. Therefore, you can peep the ideas of patterns with us, and after a few self-cut snowflakes, ideas will come to mind on their own!

Volumetric snowflakes

Volumetric snowflakes look very nice, which can be made from plain paper. In terms of manufacturing, there is nothing complicated in such a craft. Just follow the master class and you'll be fine!

#1 Volumetric geometric snowflake

To make such a snowflake, you will need 6 identical paper rectangles. Fold the rectangle in half and make 4 cuts: two long and two short. And then see the picture.

#2 Snowflake flower

To make a flower snowflake, prepare 6 strips of paper. Roll each of them into a cone and secure with a stapler. Glue the cones to the base in the form of a circle with their vertices, and place a bead in the center. The finished snowflake can be additionally decorated

#6 Snowflake flower

And here is a step-by-step master class on making a flower snowflake. Watch and repeat.

#7 Snowflake from stripes

And here is a variant of a three-dimensional snowflake made of narrow stripes. You will need 10 thin strips of the same length. Now put five strips in front of you on the table, and put the remaining five perpendicularly and pass through the first five in a checkerboard pattern. The result should be a kind of wicker "rug". Now we begin to connect the strips closely spaced to each other. To do this, first grease their ends with glue, and then carefully fasten them together. As a result, you should get some kind of leaf. Now, according to the same scheme, we make a second snowflake and connect them: we glue the free strips of one snowflake into the petals of another.

#8 Volumetric snowflake

And one more scheme of a volumetric snowflake made of paper strips. The manufacturing scheme differs from the previous one only in details: the number of strips and the way they are connected. All the nuances are perfectly visible in the step-by-step master class.

#9 Composite snowflake

And another MK.

#10 Snowflake medallion

You can make a volumetric snowflake medallion out of paper. Fold a rectangular piece of paper into an accordion shape. Then, on each element of the accordion, draw a pattern and cut it out. Now the matter remains small: connect the leaf into a ring and pull it with a thread along the bottom edge. The craft is ready!

#11 Volumetric snowflake

And here is a simpler version of the previous snowflake. You can start with this MK, and then complicate it using the top option.

#12 Fluffy snowflake

And finally, a very simple MK for making a fluffy snowflake. Fold a sheet of paper according to the standard pattern, cut off the excess and cut the edges into thin strips. Repeat the procedure 2-3 times and glue the snowflakes together. Fast and beautiful!

To make a beautiful paper snowflake, you should stock up on ready-made templates for creating a pattern in advance. Of course, you can cut paper without using special patterns, but this method is only suitable for those who already have a certain experience and artistic taste. The process of making openwork snowflakes is quite simple, for this you need to fold a sheet of paper in half so that you get a triangle. We fold the resulting triangle two more times, after which we cut out the pattern using a pre-prepared template. This is applicable to create traditional hexagonal snowflakes.

To make a snowflake with eight corners, first fold a sheet of paper in half twice in a triangle, and then diagonally once more. The octagonal snowflakes look more delicate, but are more difficult to cut due to the more layers of paper.

Patterns for cutting paper snowflakes

Instead of plain white paper, you can use paper napkins, tissue paper, foil, or old magazines. Beautiful openwork snowflakes on the walls and windows of the room will perfectly complement the festive decor. From light paper snowflakes, you can make a great garland or streamer with threads hanging down. You can also decorate a New Year's card or gift wrapping with a homemade snowflake. Snowflakes made of a denser material will be the perfect decoration for a children's New Year's costume.

Welcome all! Today is November 12, and there is still no snow in our city. What's the weather like for you? We are all already in anticipation of winter fun and the snow-white attire of nature. I really want to go outside and feel how slowly and gracefully snowflakes fall on you.

As a matter of fact, we will talk about them, about these white cut-out beauties! Probably, these fluffies are an indispensable attribute of decorating houses, streets, school and kindergarten premises in the winter. There are different ways to make this craft. The main difference is the material from which it is made and the cutting methods. We will talk about how to make paper snowflakes using different patterns and cutting patterns.

Do not forget that such blanks can be used as crafts for the upcoming New Year. Ideas of interesting and beautiful things that you can do with your own hands, you can get ready for the holidays in advance.

You know, I want to advise you to introduce such a tradition in your family: to get together on cold evenings and create with the children, making and cutting out these simple designs, and then sticking them on the windows. And let passers-by envy your beauty!!

The easiest way to make a snowflake is to fold the sheet 5 times. We fold the first four times in half, and the fifth diagonally. From the resulting workpiece, cut out any patterns and unfold. Our New Year's beauty is ready!!

But this is a very simple and not very interesting way. To complicate it, you can perform a tetrahedral version:

Or pentagonal:

Here is another simple and easy way to cut our product:

And to make it even clearer to you, let's now take a step-by-step look at the manufacturing process:

We will make snowflakes from square paper. If you have a standard A4 sheet, then bring it to the desired shape. Now fold it so that you get a triangle. We cut off the excess part and get a perfect square.
We add the square diagonally, we get a triangle.

Fold the triangle to the far corners, getting another smaller triangle.
We have a preparation. Apply any pattern on it and carefully cut it out.
You just have to straighten the finished product, so as not to hook it and tear it.

On a note!! This is the easiest way to make a snowflake. Here the result depends on the selected pattern. The more complex the pattern, the more unusual and interesting the result will be.

Beautiful do-it-yourself snowflakes (we make from paper)

I would also like to note that the more complex the decoration pattern, the more difficult it will be for you to cut it out, so calculate your strength.

For you, one more photo instruction for making New Year's crafts:

Make a diagonal fold. If you do not have a square sheet, then do not forget to cut off the excess part. Next, fold the workpiece diagonally again.
The widest part of the triangle, that is, its base, is divided into 3 equal segments. We bend one corner so that the edge ends at the level of the mark. It will be below the base, but strictly below the mark. Now fold the second part and cut off the uneven ends.
Draw or cut out a snowflake right away.

I think, in general, you already have an idea of how to carry out these simple designs and there should no longer be any difficulties in their manufacture. For you, there is another video story on our topic, and we move on to more complex options.

Volumetric snowflake. Cutting templates

To make a three-dimensional structure, you need to master the techniques of kirigami and quilling. Let's take a closer look at these two methods.

Kirigami paper snowflake

We will need: bright colored paper (the reverse side should be white or colored); scissors; pencil with ruler.

Manufacturing process:

1. Cut out a square from colored paper of any size.

2. Fold it four times to make the part a quarter.

3. We make a diagonal fold.

4. Cut off the beveled corner from above.

5. Cut out symmetrical triangles at the outer side of the figure.

6. With scissors from bottom to top, we make two cuts on both sides of the sharp corner, as well as one more cut on the right or left.

7. Unfold the paper and gently smooth it out.

8. Now arbitrarily bend the formed corners up or down.

9. Having folded all the corners, iron the craft with an iron.

10. When you place the product, then turn it as desired with the front or wrong side towards you.

When you are familiar with this technique, I offer you templates of more original types:

like this for example

or such

Snowflake in quilling technique

And this is a very painstaking work, but the result is the envy of everyone. Although, if you figure it out, everything is done very simply.

We take a regular sheet of paper and draw the same lines using a ruler with a pencil. Cut the sheet into strips.
Take an awl and attach the edge of the paper strip to its end. Now we wind the strip on the tool.
We glue the end of the strip to the resulting coil and remove the roll from the awl. Make another such coil, but lightly squeeze it with your fingers on one side. Make five more of these droplet coils.

Take the first blank and glue six "droplets" to it.
Again we roll six coils and squeeze with our fingers on both sides. Glue new details between the snowflake petals.
Take three strips and bend them in half, then cut them. You should have six short strips. Of these, twist six coils. Glue a new coil to each end of the part.
From long strips we make six more coils, only slightly larger than the first. To do this, do not tighten the paper too much. Glue them on top between small rolls.
You need to make six more large coils and bend their sides with your fingers so that you get a square. We glue them with the top to large coils.
We take a pencil and wind a paper strip around it, glue the end of the strip and remove the coil. We glue this part to one of the tops of the snowflake and thread a ribbon or rope into the ring.

Here is a diagram of how you can still glue the parts:

And you can also make such a three-dimensional 3D figure.

We will need: paper, scissors and a clerical knife; Scotch; glue; stapler.

Cooking process:

1. Make six identical squares out of paper.

2. Bend each square diagonally and make 3 cuts to the middle on both sides. The cuts should not touch, leave 0.5-1 cm between them.

3. Unfold the sheet and lay it so that the uncut edges are vertical. From the inside, you need to twist the two nearest edges into a tube. Glue with glue or tape.

4. Expand the workpiece and connect the next two strips. Again, turn the part over and connect the 3rd row of strips. Glue the last strips too, turning the workpiece upside down.

5. We do the same with six squares. Then fasten them in three elements, deployed in one direction. Then we fix both parts into a three-dimensional figure.

6. If necessary, fix the sides of the product with a stapler or glue.

And another master class on making winter beauties:

How to make a snowflake from a toilet paper roll?

It turns out that in order to make such crafts, it is not necessary to use plain paper, you can also take toilet paper rolls. And the work process is very simple, you need to take only one roll, PVA glue and paints, you can use acrylic, or gouache. For decor, take glitter, sequins or confetti.

Now just cut the toilet paper roll into equal parts, flatten it and glue it. Top with your choice of material.

Here are a couple more design ideas for roll structures:

use small and large parts

From above you can take different elements of decoration

Or you can just cover it with gold paint

The most popular and magical holiday, the New Year, is coming soon. This is a great time for creativity. Of course, you can buy jewelry and toys in the store, but it is better to make them yourself.

In apartments and public institutions, they are already beginning to decorate windows,. Another common decoration method is snowflakes - this is the most popular New Year's attribute.

In a previous article, I already talked about. And today we will consider a few step-by-step instructions for making volumetric snowflakes.

It may seem like a complicated process, but even children can make such decor. Therefore, get together with your family in your free time and start creating.

To begin, consider one of the simple ways to make a New Year's accessory. As a material, you can use colored paper. If you have a white sheet, then, if desired, paint the finished snowflake.

Our result will be like this:

Fold a sheet of A4 paper in half lengthwise. The bend is smoothed by hand.

Now, on either side, we bend the sheet by 1.5-2 cm. Do not forget to iron the fold points. After that, we turn the workpiece over and also bend a couple of centimeters. That is, we make a kind of accordion.

The resulting workpiece is cut lengthwise. As a result, we get two harmonicas at the output.

On each craft we draw a pattern, which is shown in the photo below. Then we cut out the paper along the marked lines.

If you did everything according to the instructions, then the unfolded blanks should look like this:

Lubricate the ends of the paper with a pencil with glue. Then we glue both parts of the future snowflake to form a kind of ring.

Now carefully turn the ring inside out and our craft is ready. When you get the skills, you will need a couple of minutes, no more.

Step-by-step instructions for making a simple volumetric snowflake

You can make a paper Christmas decoration in another simple way. We will need ordinary sheets and glue, as well as a little patience. Get your kids involved in the creative process.

Now we will learn how to make such a snowflake:

From a regular sheet of paper we make a perfect square. To do this, we fold it diagonally, connecting two opposite sides to make a triangle. We cut off the lower part with scissors and put it aside, it will still be useful to us.

We bend the second sheet in half, and cut it into two equal parts.

From the two halves we make squares by analogy with the first sheet. That is, we bend them diagonally and cut off the lower part.

From the strip that we have left from the first sheet, we make two more small squares according to the same principle. As a result, we should get five blanks.

We fold the largest triangle twice, then bend it diagonally to the opposite side. Turn over and obliquely cut off part of the workpiece along the line opposite the corner.

Now we make longitudinal lines with scissors, without cutting the workpiece to the end by 1 cm.

We do the same with the rest of the figures. Then we unfold our snowflakes. Apply glue to the center of the largest craft and fasten the middle craft, and then the smallest one. We turn over and on the other hand we also glue two blanks.

New Year's decor element is ready to decorate the room

How to make beautiful DIY paper snowflakes

Anyone can make an original craft for the winter holiday. This is a fun activity, so you won't even notice how time flies by, and you will have a few accessories to decorate the room.

We will need five sheets of paper, scissors and a glue stick. The craft will consist of 5 parts, so let's consider how to make one of them, and the rest in a similar way.

Fold the sheet along the short side. You do not need to smooth the bend, just put a mark, pinching the paper with your fingers, top and bottom.

We bend one side of the sheet to the mark with an overlap of 1 cm. We also bend the other side with an overlap.

On one side we apply a strip of glue with a pencil, and glue the second side of the sheet to it.

From each we measure 2 cm, and with the help of a ruler we make folds.

Now the formed folds need to be bent inward to make it, as in the photo below.

The next step is to fold the piece in half.

We put a dot in the center of the strip, then mark 9.5 cm on the right side, and 5.5 cm on the left. After that, we draw lines along the marks.

We got a double bag so that the blank does not fall apart, we will glue it together.

After that, we make cuts along the marked lines. Cut off the excess parts of the workpiece.

If you did everything according to the instructions, then you should get such a voluminous blank of the future snowflake.

We do four more parts in the same way. The first one can be used as a template to cut off the corners.

Now we need to glue all the parts. To do this, apply glue with a horizontal and vertical strip. Make sure all corners match.

Let's wait a little while the glue grabs well. And then it remains to expand the snowflake and glue it.

For decoration, you can use sparkles, colored markers, beads. In general, turn on your imagination to create a beautiful craft.

Patterns and schemes of volumetric snowflakes for cutting on windows

To design window openings, you can use not simple stencils, but three-dimensional attributes. Making them is not as difficult as it might seem.

To make snowflakes look voluminous, you need to choose a stencil, download several copies and fix them in the middle with thread or glue.

And here are the blank options that you can download or print by clicking on the icon at the end of the subheading.

Click on the PDF file below and a new window will open where you can click on the download button or on the printer icon to print the images.

If you can draw, then try to create a stencil with a beautiful pattern yourself. And if you want to decorate the windows with the symbol of the next year, then use.

Step-by-step production of volumetric paper snowflakes

Let's look at another interesting option for making New Year's decorations. Like previous technologies, this method is quite simple, so even children can handle the task.

In almost all cases, to make a snowflake, we need an equilateral square. Therefore, we fold a sheet of A4 paper diagonally and cut off the excess strip.

The resulting triangle is folded in half twice. As a result, we get something like this.

Now we cut out the workpiece in a circle, starting from the corner on the opening side, and ending with the closed side, not reaching 2-3 cm to the opposite corner.

In the same way, we make two more cuts. We make another one of the same kind.

Carefully unfold the piece. Glue the ends of the middle strips to the center of the template.

On the reverse side, glue the second part of the snowflake so that its rays are between the edges of the first part, as shown in the photo, and also glue the middle strip of the lower part to the center of the snowflake.
