I found this fun/easy idea via one of my favorite blogs: designsponge, an idea of Allison Fonseca. A fun, cost-efficient way to add handmade and holiday to your home...
Materials Needed:
- cork board (any size or shape you like)
- plain white paper
- photos, magazine clippings, etc.
- white thumbtacks
- scissors
Instructions:
1. Fold and cut the sheets of white paper to make the snowflakes. You should make enough to cover the cork board and to extend over the edges a bit, with some overlapping as well. The snowflakes can be all the same size or of varying sizes. [*note: If the last time you made one of these was the 2nd grade and you need a quick refresher, refer to the diagram below.]
2. Lay the cork board on a flat surface and layer the paper snowflakes and photos on top. There’s no wrong way to do it, just play around with the different pieces until you find an arrangement you like.
3. Use the thumbtacks to attach everything to the cork board. And that’s it! Your one-of-a-kind artwork is now ready to be hung and admired.
