These are the kind of snowflakes that everyone likes to see. They are delicate and fresh, and never need shoveling! Made with a double strand of fine gauge wire, each snowflake link is a lacy pattern that looks much more complicated and difficult to make than it is. This advanced project includes step-by-step photography.
Required Materials:Wire, cabochon, snowflake links, jump rings, craft sticks. See project for complete list.
Tools Needed: Chain nose pliers, flat nose pliers, flush cutters, round nose pliers, ruler, pen, photograph mounting squares (optional). See project for complete list.
