Here’s an easy craft for older kids that will extend the decorations in your home past the holidays and through the winter.
This inexpensive craft used just a glue gun and a little glitter. All ages will enjoy the results, but younger kids will need a lot of supervision.
What you will need:
- Low temp glue gun and glue sticks
- Glitter
- Parchment paper
- Sharpie or permanent marker
What you will do:
- Draw a snowflake design on the parchment paper using a sharpie. Turn paper over so that the sharpie doesn't bleed onto the glue.
- Using a low temp glue gun, trace the snowflakes in glue.
- Sprinkle glitter on the glue while hot.
- Let snowflakes cool completely. You can pick off the extra glue threads, or leave them on ~ either way looks pretty.
- Peel off parchment paper and place snowflakes on a window. To get them to stick, your window needs to be clean and dry. If the window is cold, we found that heating up the snowflake with a hairdryer immediately before applying helps it to stick to the window better.
