Posh Pooch Designs : Snowflake Ornaments Crochet Pattern And How To Stiffen Them

Snowflake Ornaments Crochet Pattern
And How To Stiffen Them
With Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

This lovely Snowflake is designed to be a Christmas

And Holiday ornament, measuring 6 X 6 inches

One it stiffened up for hanging, we add a ribbon hanger

with beads for a fun touch.

The Snowflakes stitch up pretty quick and you can

make sever in one sitting.

They will look wonderful hanging on your Christmas tree,

stockings, the mantel and any place you would like to

hang them for all your festive occasions.

There are 3 Ways of Stiffening Your Snowflake

For Hanging up.

1. Glitter Spray - Go outside, Lay the snowflake on a paper towel.

Spry the back of the Snowflake let it dry. Turn it over and

spray the front.

When it's dry add a hanger.

2. Glitter Glue - Lay the snowflake on a paper towel.

Mix equal parts of Glue and water.

With a paint brush, paint the back of the snowflake.

When it's dry, turn it over and paint the front.

When it's dry add a hanger.

3. White School Glue - Mix equal amounts of white school glue and water

in a bowl. Dip the snowflake in the mixture, until it's covered.

Lay on a paper towel to dry or paper plate. Pat out some of

the moisture. You will need to turn it a few times as it's

drying to keep it from sticking to the paper towel.

You can sprinkle with glitter while the glue is wet

for a glitter effect.

I have used all three methods and love #1 the best. It

is the quickest to apply and dry, and least messy.

Plus it adds glitter and stiffen at the same time.
