A Winter Snowflake DIY
My first diy of the year. Of course it had to be snowflakes. I have wanted to create some that were a little different, because as you know no snowflake is the same. These ones definitely are not. But I am really liking them on my mantel tucked into my greenery. They will stay here until I start getting some Valentines Day ideas flowing through this little brain of mine.
I just started arranging mine in a circular pattern until I liked what I saw. I did add two layers to each snowflake. But each one if different in number. I used my glue gun to glue the pieces together. It worked best if you glue from the tops and sides.
I did my first layer and then began to work on my second layer.
I wanted to cover up the hole on the top so I added some wooden snowflakes to some and pom poms to others.
My favorites are the ones I added seven to the bottom layer and five to the top layer. I really just played around with them until I liked the pattern.
Then I decided to stain them all, I was not precise I just added stain here and there to them.
