• white satin 5*5 cm – 6 pcs., 2.5x2.5 cm – 18 pcs., ribbon 0.5x15 cm – 1 pc., circle with a diameter of 3 cm;
• blue satin 5*5 cm – 6 pcs., 2.5x2.5 cm – 12 pcs.;
• white rhinestone – 1 flower;
• Moment-crystal glue, scissors, ruler, lighter, thin tweezers.
Preparing parts
Satin ribbons are cut into squares of 5x5 cm and 2.5x2.5 cm in the specified quantity, the edges are melted using a lighter or candle. You can use a soldering iron for cutting, then the edges will already be processed. After preparing the parts, you can begin to form the petals.
The blue and white satin square is folded twice diagonally. Then the blue triangle is overlapped with the white one so that the tip of the white one protrudes slightly. The two pieces are folded in half with the blue ribbon inward to form a petal with a sharp tip. The edge of the petal must be cut off a little and soldered using a lighter. The bottom of the petal is also cut off and melted, but the edges are not glued together; a hole should remain.This is how 6 white and blue petals are prepared.
The same sharp petals are made from parts 2.5 * 2.5, but only one tape is used. For ease of working with small parts, you can use tweezers. The tip is melted without cutting, and the bottom is slightly trimmed. A hole should also form in the small petals - the product will be more openwork.
Now you need to glue the rays of the snowflake: two white petals are glued together, two already connected blue petals are glued into them, then the top is glued - the white petal. And so on for the remaining six rays. Large bicolor petals form into a flower, sticking together in the center.
Assembling a snowflake
A circle cut from ribbon is glued to the bottom of the flower - this is the base of the snowflake. A thin ribbon-loop is also attached to the mug so that the snowflake can be hung on the Christmas tree. Rays are glued between the petals of the flower. The middle of the snowflake is decorated with a suitable rhinestone.
The result is such a frosty and bright snowflake.
