Last year, my friend Vero found an online tutorial to make this beautiful winter//Christmas decoration. This year we tried to find the instructions again and they were gone :(
So we decided to do our own “How to” for this project. Note that in the end the snowflake is pretty big.
These instruction are also availiable in french on our blog : http://carottelychee.blogspot.com/2009/12/tutoriel-un-merveilleux-flocon-de-neige.html

>_< I'm so dumb. I saw this how-to before but it wasn't in english and it only showed some of the steps... Pretty much stop with the pics at step 11 and I was like O_O that doesn't look like a smowflake!!

I just want to thank the user "Rocky" for making me remind to change the instructions on step #20. Its really easier to do it that way instead of trying to glue the six points together!

One of my collegue saw 3 of those snowflakes hanging in from a window in my hometown of Montreal. If the person that made this version took the tutorial here, I would be very curious to see his or her version :)

Oh wow! I didn't see the thumbnail so I thought it might have just been one of those run-of-the-mill cut the paper kind of snowflakes but this is really pretty! I'm definitely making a bunch of these for some Christmas decorations! :D Thanks!

I found the directions for these snowflakes last year somewhere. Some of my students made them and we hung them in the school library. Very pretty!

Thank you for the How To!! I once knew how to make this, and then I forgot. I made lots with the children in my classroom and we hang them to the cealing. It's so cosy! My collegues are stunned! haha. I'll take a picture soon and post it.

My friends and I made a bunch of these for our Spanish teacher today :) He just had double bypass surgery and won't be back until after Christmas break, so we wanted to send along something pretty to make him feel better :D
My suggestion is to use paper clips to hold the two sides when you're gluing them together. It minimizes the chance that they'll pull apart while your cutting out another point or something.
