Go Beyond Snowflake Paper Cutouts With These DIY Decorations

Do you remember making paper snowflakes in elementary school? While they are fun to make, they don’t hold up and these snowflake crafts are an adult version of the ones you made as kids. You can turn your house into a winter wonderland with these DIY snowflake decorations and the best part is that most of the materials you’ll need can be found in your home.

Paper Straw Snowflakes

Use the paper straws you have in your kitchen drawer for this fun craft that uses two materials—straws and cotton balls. Make ones in different sizes and hang them throughout your home.

Marshmallow Snowflakes

Why not take your hot chocolate to the next level by adding marshmallow snowflakes? These edible snowflakes made with marshmallows and toothpicks are perfect for dipping into hot cocoa.

Wood Snowflakes

With a stencil, cut snowflakes onto wood and add a ribbon for these festive decorations. Hang them on your wall or attach them to your front door to spread winter cheer.

Snowflake Pillow

Upgrade your pillows for the season by adding pearls, pom-poms, or silver ribbon in the shape of snowflakes.

Snowflake Clothespin Ornaments

Put those clothespins you have in your laundry room to good use by making snowflake ornaments. You can keep them natural or add some sparkle to jazz the ornaments up.
