Coffee Filter Snowflakes!!!


Cute right? And sooooo easy to make! No seriously, try it! I just took a plain coffee filter and folded it in half and then folded it again and started cutting away with the scissors, and look how cute they came out. You really cant go wrong with any way you cut, so long as you fold it right. Basically the object is to make it look like a triangle. When I had all of them done I took a bit of sticky laminate and laminated them. I made a set for each of the grandparents and I'm keeping the rest :)

Oh and that thing they are hanging on it is my Christmas card holder... its made to look like Christmas lights. I just cut the lights out of leftover felt scraps I had laying around and then hot glued them to clothes pins, strung it up and Whala!
