You can use office paper, colored paper for children's creativity, or origami paper for cutting out snowflakes.
It is convenient to use ordinary stationery scissors to cut out relatively large sections of the pattern, for example along the edge of a snowflake.
To cut out small details and complex patterns, it is better to use hairdressing scissors and manicure scissors.
DIY snowflakes
So, the paper and scissors have been selected, now you can proceed to the first stage of making snowflakes - folding the paper. To obtain a hexagonal blank from which a snowflake will subsequently be made, cut a square of the required size from a sheet of paper.
How to get squares of different sizes from an A4 sheet
1. Fold a sheet of paper in any way, but so that one part is larger than the other, and then cut along the marked line.
2. Fold most of the sheet along a bisector.
3. Cut off the excess paper to create a square.

4. The blank for the big snowflake is ready.
5. Repeat steps 2-3 with the smaller part of the sheet remaining after step 1.
6. The result is a blank for a medium snowflake.
7. With the trim remaining after step 6, repeat steps 2-3.
.jpg)
8. The result is a blank for a small snowflake. Thus, from one A4 sheet you can make blanks for three snowflakes of different sizes.
The dimensions of the blanks may vary slightly. They depend on how the original sheet was folded in step 1. In addition, a large snowflake can be obtained by cutting a square from a whole A4 sheet.
How to fold a hexagonal blank from a square
Now we need to form a regular triangle from the square (in unfolded form - a hexagon), from which a snowflake will be cut.
Method No. 1
1. Fold the square in half.
2. Then fold the sheet “by eye” so that the angles indicated in diagram 3 are equal.
3. Turn the workpiece over to the other side.
4. The fold should run along the edge of the workpiece, bent in step 2 of the layer, and the top edge should coincide with the left fold.
5. Trim off any excess paper evenly.
Method No. 2
1. Fold the square diagonally.
2. Mark the middle of the leg of the resulting triangle (side).
3. Connect the vertex (right angle) of the triangle with the intended middle of the leg. Mark the fold line and again unfold the workpiece to a triangle.
4. Now mark the middle of the base of the triangle.
5. Connect the middle of the leg with a point lying on the marking line obtained in step 3. The fold line should pass through the middle of the base of the triangle.
6. Connect the base of the triangle to the fold line obtained in step 5.
7. Cut off the excess paper along the indicated line.
Advice
Choose the size of the hexagonal blank (large, small or medium) yourself based on the paper you use for cutting, the complexity of the snowflake and your skills in working with scissors.
Cutting out a snowflake
1. Fold the regular triangle obtained using one of the methods suggested above (an unfolded hexagon) in half. Perform all actions very precisely so that later you do not cut through the crooked layers of paper with scissors. Make sure that the circled tip (see diagram) is in the center of the future snowflake.
2. Start cutting. In the diagrams, areas of paper that need to be removed are indicated in bright pink. First, form the outer edge of the snowflake. To do this, cut out a pattern on the top side of the workpiece, as shown in the diagram.
3. Then cut out the pattern on both sides of the workpiece. The last to be cut are small elements inside the workpiece and near an acute corner.
4. The snowflake is ready, all that remains is to carefully unfold it.
We will cut out all the presented snowflakes according to this description, starting from step 2, when the regular triangle is already folded in half. The fact is that all snowflakes are cut out the same way, only the pattern changes, so we did not repeat the description of the work many times, but limited ourselves to exact diagrams.
The process of making each snowflake consists of 3-5 sequential diagrams, on which the sections of paper to be removed are indicated in black. The last diagram, which shows a completely cut out, but not yet unfolded, snowflake, is also a template. You can “by eye” draw a pattern from it onto your workpiece, or transfer it using tracing paper and carbon paper.
Advice
The snowflake should look like a graphic image with a clearly readable pattern, so perform all stages of the work very carefully and accurately.
Snowflakes. Schemes
Such snowflakes will become beautiful New Year's interior decoration .

Snowflake. Step-by-step manufacturing process
Take a rectangular sheet of white paper and, following the instructions, cut out a snowflake from it. Imagine, come up with your own patterns, and you will get the most unusual and beautiful snowflake!
Greetings everyone! Today is November 12th, and there is still no snow in our city. What's your weather like? We're all already looking forward to it winter fun and the snow-white outfit of nature. I really want to go outside and feel how snowflakes slowly and gracefully fall on you.
As a matter of fact, we will talk about them, about these white cut-out beauties! Probably, these fluffies are an indispensable attribute for decorating houses, streets, school and kindergarten premises in winter period time. There are different methods for making this craft. The main difference is the material from which it is made and the cutting methods. We will talk about how to make paper snowflakes using different schemes and templates for cutting.
Do not forget that such blanks can be used as crafts for the upcoming New Year. You can get ideas for interesting and beautiful things that you can do with your own hands, getting ready for the holidays in advance.
You know, I would like to advise you to introduce such a tradition in your family: get together on cold evenings and create with your children, making and cutting out these simple designs, and then sticking them on the windows. And let passers-by envy your beauty!!
The easiest way to make a snowflake is to fold the sheet 5 times. The first four times we fold it in half, and the fifth time - diagonally. We cut out any patterns from the resulting blank and unfold it. Our New Year's beauty is ready!!
But this is a very simple and not very interesting way. To make it more complicated, you can make a tetrahedral version:
Or pentagonal:
Here is another simple and easy way to cut out our product:
And to make it even clearer to you, let’s now look at the manufacturing process step by step:
- We will make snowflakes from square paper. If you have a standard A4 sheet, then adjust it to the desired shape. Now fold it to form a triangle. We cut off the excess part and get a perfect square.
- We fold the square diagonally to form a triangle.
- Fold the triangle towards the far corners, creating another smaller triangle.
- We have a blank. Apply any pattern to it and carefully cut it out.
- All you have to do is straighten the finished product so as not to catch it and tear it.
Note!! This is the easiest way to make a snowflake. Here the result depends on the selected pattern. The more complex the pattern, the more unusual and interesting the result will be.
Beautiful snowflakes with your own hands (made from paper)
I would also like to note that the more complex the decoration pattern, the more difficult it will be for you to cut it, so count on your strength.
For you, one more photo instruction for making a New Year's craft:
- Make a diagonal bend. If you do not have a square sheet, then do not forget to cut off the excess part. Next, roll the workpiece diagonally again.
- We divide the widest part of the triangle, that is, its base into 3 equal segments. We bend one corner so that the edge ends at the level of the mark. It will be below the base, but strictly under the mark. Now fold the second part and trim off the uneven ends.
- Draw or immediately cut out a snowflake.
I think, in general, you already have an idea of how to carry out these simple designs and there should no longer be any difficulties in their manufacture. Here's another video for you on our topic, and let's move on to more complex options.
Volumetric snowflake. Cutting templates
To make a three-dimensional structure, you need to master the techniques of kirigami and quilling. Let's take a closer look at these two methods.
- Paper snowflake using kirigami technique
We will need: bright colored paper (reverse side must be white or colored); scissors; pencil with ruler.
Manufacturing process:
1. Cut out a square of colored paper of any size.
2. Fold it in quarters to reduce the size of the piece by four.
3. Make a diagonal fold.
4. Cut off the beveled corner at the top.
5. Cut out symmetrical triangles on the outside of the figure.
6. Using scissors from bottom to top, make two cuts on both sides of the sharp corner, as well as another cut on the right or left.
7. Unfold the paper and smooth it out carefully.
8. Now bend the resulting corners up or down at random.
9. Having folded all the corners, iron the craft.
10. When you place the product, turn it as desired with the front or back side facing you.
When you have become familiar with this technique, I offer you templates of more original types:
- like this one for example
- or like this
- maybe you will like this option
- Snowflake using quilling technique
This is very painstaking work, but the result is the envy of everyone. Although, if you look at it, everything is done extremely simply.
- We take a regular sheet of paper and, using a ruler and pencil, draw identical lines. Cut the sheet into strips.
- Take an awl and attach the edge of a paper strip to its end. Now we wind the strip onto the tool.
- Glue the end of the strip to the resulting coil and remove the roll from the awl. Make another such coil, but lightly squeeze it with your fingers on one side. Make five more of these teardrop coils.
- Take the first blank and glue six “droplets” to it.
- Roll six coils again and squeeze with your fingers on both sides. Glue new parts between the petals of the snowflake.
- Take three strips and fold them in half, then cut them. You should have six short strips. Twist six coils from them. Glue a new coil onto each tip of the piece.
- From long strips we make six more coils, only slightly larger in size than the first. To do this, do not tighten the paper too much. Glue them on top between small rolls.
- You need to make six more large coils and bend their sides with your fingers to make a square. We glue them at the top to the large coils.
- Take a pencil and wrap a paper strip around it, glue the end of the strip and remove the spool. We glue this part to one of the tops of the snowflake and thread a ribbon or string into the ring.
Here is a diagram of how you can still glue the parts:
- You can also make such a three-dimensional 3D figure.
We will need: paper, scissors and a stationery knife; scotch; glue; stapler
Cooking process:
1. Make six identical squares out of paper.
2. Bend each square diagonally and make 3 cuts towards the middle on both sides. The cuts should not touch, leave 0.5-1 cm between them.
3. Lay out the sheet and place it so that the uncut edges are vertical. From the inside you need to twist the two closest edges into a tube. Glue with glue or tape.
4. Unfold the workpiece and connect the next two strips. We turn the part over again and connect the 3rd row of strips. Glue the last strips too, turning the workpiece over to the other side.
5. We do the same with six squares. Then fasten them in three elements, turned in one direction. Then we fix both parts into a three-dimensional figure.
6. If necessary, secure the sides of the product with a stapler or glue.
And another master class on making winter beauties:
How to make a snowflake from a roll of toilet paper?
It turns out that to make such crafts, you don’t have to use regular paper; you can also take rolls from toilet paper. And the work process is very simple, you only need to take one roll, PVA glue and paints, you can use acrylic, or you can use gouache. For decoration, use glitter, sequins or confetti.
Now just cut the toilet paper roll into equal parts, shape it into a flattened shape and glue it together. Top with material of your choice.
Here are a couple more ideas for designing structures made from rolls:
- use small and large pieces
- You can take different decoration elements from above
- Or you can just cover it with gold paint

To make it, we use a sheet of double-sided colored paper, cut it to make a square, and fold it diagonally. Then we fold it three more times to make triangles.
There should be three sides and a common fold side.
We wrap the long end inward and cut off the resulting triangle.
We make straight, long cuts.
Carefully unfold the workpiece so that the fringe does not tear.
To make the snowflakes voluminous, we make several of the same blanks (two or three) of a smaller size, connecting them in the center. Our voluminous beauty is ready!

- 16 pcs size 21*2cm
- 16 pcs size 19*2 cm
But you can take other sizes, then the snowflake will turn out larger or smaller.
Glue the ends of each strip together.
We form blanks.
We cut out a strip of paper 2 cm wide, wrap it, for example, on nail polish :)) glue the ends and create the center of the snowflake.
Newspaper is thinner than paper, so you need to make strips in several layers to add thickness.
We combine everything into one product.
Creating a three-dimensional snowflake can be seen step by step using this video:
Multi-colored volumetric snowflake
We cut strips of two colors - 5 long, 10 medium, 10 short, as in the photo.
Connecting: glue the ends of the long strip, then glue the middle strips to its ends on the sides.
Then comes the turn of short stripes. It turns out to be such a preparation.
Use a stapler or glue to connect the pieces in the middle. Glue a circle of paper into the center and decorate with any pattern.
It turns out a voluminous snow beauty!
