Styling Ideas for Your Crochet Snowflakes
Once you’ve created a handful of snowflakes, there are so many ways to use them:
- Garland: String several snowflakes together for a festive garland.
- Ornaments: Add a loop of yarn to each snowflake to hang them as ornaments.
- Gift Wrap: Top your holiday presents with a crochet snowflake for a unique, handmade touch.
Tips for Success
- Use Starch for Stiffening: For a more defined shape, dip your finished snowflakes in fabric stiffener and lay flat to dry.
- Experiment with Colors: Try soft blues, creams, or metallic yarns for a snowy, sparkly effect.
