Paperbag Snowflake Craft Instructions

Materials:

• 9 paper lunch sacks
• hot glue
• scissors
• twine
• hole punch

Optional:

• Ruler
• Pencil
• Xacto knife

Step 1: Making it

• Glue the bags together, flap side down
• Make a T-Shape with the glue at the top of the flap and then along the seam about 3/4 the length of the bag.

Step 2: Cutting it

• Decide what shapes you want
• Sometimes a pencil helps here
• Cut out the shapes
• DO NOT cut along the flap!

Step 3: Sticking it

• Unfold and glue the final edges together.
• Sometimes it helps to stick your hands all the way in the bag.
• Careful! Hot glue is… hot.

Step 4: Hang ’em High

• Use a hole punch to make (you guessed it!) a hole.
• Thread with twine (or ribbon).
• Hang it up!

Other Ideas:

Add glitter or spray paint or have the kids color on the bags ahead of time.
