Button Snowflakes – Materials
- 3 popsicles,
- white paint,
- glue,
- an assortment of white (ish) buttons
(Find lots of WHITE BUTTONS here – affiliate links –
1) I glued the popscicles together and let dry (a hot glue done, does this very quickly for you, but PVA will work too)
2) The kids the painted them white (they wanted to paint both sides, so we let them dry and then painted the other side the next day
3) Once try they selected their buttons and stuck them on. Interestingly Red Ted picked all the clear ones and the large yellow-y ones, Pip Squeak went for small ish buttons.
4) Glue on some ribbon for hanging and write the kids name and dates on the back.
We will be giving two away (Opapa and Nonni will be the lucky recipients this time) and keeping two for our tree!
