Do handicrafts in winter - ice crystals for the window

When was the last time you did handicrafts with your children? Especially in winter there is an abundance of possibilities for Handcraft with paper. Just take a look at the winter landscape outside and let yourself be inspired. Have paper and scissors ready and make pretty ice crystals.

1. First, use a pair of compasses to draw circles of different sizes on the paper and cut out the circles.
2. Now fold the circles in half horizontally and then vertically again. A triangle with a rounded edge has now been created. Fold this triangle in the middle again to make a smaller triangle. If you unfolded the circle you would now see eight equal sized segments. But leave the circle folded.
3. Now draw cutting lines with a pencil. You can let your imagination run wild. Just make sure these lines don't cut the triangle.
4. Now cut out the recorded parts with the scissors and your ice crystal is ready. Unfold the circle to admire it.
