Volumetric snowflakes with their own hands is easy and simple, follow our advice
New Year is one of those holidays,which are eagerly awaited, which not only children, but also adults love very much. And many are thinking about how to decorate the house for these big holidays. For example, there is a tradition to decorate the Christmas tree, room and windows with cut-out garlands and snowflakes. Many remember how in kindergarten or at home they learned to cut out of paper, paper napkins, the first New Year's crafts with their own hands. It was very exciting, fun and interesting. I suggest you again take up the creation of snowflakes to diversify the decor of your home and give joy to yourself and your loved ones. So, in this article I want to show you how to create a voluminous origami snowflake from paper. For work we need to prepare: six equal-sized squares of white paper. Any paper is suitable for snowflakes, but the thinner it is, the more likely it is to quickly lose its shape. The side of each square can be from 10 to 25 cm. From the tools: scissors, a simple pencil, a stapler, a ruler. Fold each of the six squares of paper in half, diagonally. On each, make markings of three parallel lines, as shown in the picture (the sections should be the same width). Of course, you shouldn't draw the lines in red (I drew them in the photo so you can see them better), but use a simple pencil. Cut the marked lines with scissors, starting from the edge and just short of the middle (leaving a couple of millimeters).
We open the square folded diagonally and place it in front of us face up, as shown in the photo below.
Roll the first row of strips into a tube and staple them together. You should see triangular shapes on each side of the tube.
Now we turn the snowflake over to the other side. We fasten the next two strips closest to the center with a stapler.
Next, turn the snowflake over and staple the remaining strips together. This is what you should get.
We do the same with the remaining five squares of paper. We staple the three parts of the snowflake together in the middle. We do the same with the remaining three.
Now we connect these two large parts together.
We connect them in those places where each of the six parts of the snowflake touches each other, so that the snowflake holds its shape. This is what we get.
Now decorate your craft to your own taste (for example, you can glue on glitter, sequins). The snowflake can be hung on a window, on a Christmas tree, on a wall…
