Need a clever, yet simple Christmas idea for your home or a gift? This Magic 3D Snowflake Ornament will not only look great on your tree, but will be a favorite with the kids and adults alike.

You can make them in a multitude of colors to match any tree, wreath or decorative theme. Better still, they can be attached to make a 3D snowflake, that looks great hanging, but also makes a wonderful standing ornament on a desktop.

While blocking is essential for making symmetrical and even snowflakes, you don’t need to struggle with it.
