Sparkly Snowflakes
Create light, sparkly snowflakes! Decorate a package, trim a tree, or hang them in winter windows. Let it snow!
1. When precipitation falls through atmosphere that is colder than 32°F (0°C), white or translucent ice crystals form. These crystals are called snow. Do you think every snowflake looks different than all the others? Try these steps to create your own unique snowflakes.
2. Flatten a large chunk of white Model Magic®. Cut out snowflake shapes with large and small cookie cutters. Press the shapes together in layers.
3. If you like, press mini cookie cutters into the Model Magic layers. Remove these shapes to create lacy snowflakes.
4. Form Model Magic characters such as elves to decorate the snowflakes.
5. Decorate with Crayola Super Sparkle Glitter Glue and sparkly chenille sticks. Air-dry before using.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.
