DIY Popsicle Stick Snowflake(s)

This is one that I had actually done last year & had quite a few requests for instructions.
 It really is quite easy & self explanatory by just looking at the image(s), & as simple as they are to make, they do a fantastic job transforming any stark white/ bare wall & creates quite a statement & in my experience a great conversation piece! 


Supplies:

  • Popsicle / Craft sticks. 
  • Paint & Paint Brush / Spray Paint 
  • Hot Glue Gun / Re-fill sticks. 
  • Ribbon 

How To:


Begin by choosing the shape you want to create - Snowflakes are unique by design so get creative with it!
Due to the fact that I made these last year, I am lacking pictures to say the least & If you prefer to follow a template you can find a slew of varying difficulty HERE


I began all of mine with the same 6 - Popsicle-stick center (as shown in the image below) & then just switched up the outer design(s) on each one! 
Once you have finished creating your designs paint them any colour you would like!
I did mine using a paint brush & acrylic paint - but this was very tedious, time consuming, 
& took quite a few coats & would recommend spray painting them instead!


After allowing to dry completely - Tie a piece of ribbon to the top & Voila Holiday Statement Wall!

You could also suspend them in a window using fishing wire in place of the ribbon! 


Thank you for browsing, & Happy Sunday!

I have lots more Christmas Themed tutorials & a few recipes coming throughout the month of December!
