Do you have a puzzle laying around that isn't being used or perhaps it's missing pieces? I have a great project that turns puzzle pieces into a magnetic snowflake! It's super easy, kids can get in on the fun as well. Great for gift ideas, craft night, classroom parties, etc.
Puzzle Pieces to Snowflake
4 Materials
$1
10 Minutes
Easy
Spread your puzzle pieces out, and you'll need about 7 pieces per snow flake. You can adjust this project however you like.
Hot glue or glue your pieces together. Here is how I did it. I set one piece in the center and added 3 pieces angling out on top of that 1st piece in a triangle type shape - one on the top, and 2 in either bottom corner. I then added a top layer of 3 more placing them in the spaces of the first layer.
I bought a package of magnets from the Dollar Tree, and cut the extra into square/rectangle shapes.
Glue the magnets onto the back of the puzzle pieces.
Glue the magnets onto the back of the puzzle pieces.
While the paint was still wet, I sprinkled white glitter onto the snowflakes.
Let dry completely, and they're ready to hang or give as a gift.
