Hello all you lovely people! We’re thrilled to team up with some of our favorite sites today, to bring you some fabulous ornament ideas. They’re filled with fun holidaisical inspiration, so be sure to check out the other links below!

Today’s craft project is this fun diy snowflake ornament!

They’re simple, modern and colorful! And the best part? They’re made from this gorgeous stained glass strips, so just like snowflakes, no two are alike.

Our {older} kiddos loved making these the other day – so they also make for fun family projects!

Wanna make some of your own?

Here’s what you’ll need: {some links may be affiliate links} 

• stained glass strips – we love this online store for all things stained glass. We ordered the 3/4″ wide stained glass strips. I think we ended up ordering three of these, just because I was originally making another project in the beginning of the apocalypse. So make sure you get enough for plenty of variety. 

• super glue – this kind works especially well with glass 

• velvet ribbon + scissors + hot glue – {to cut and attach}

What we do next, is ridiculously easy. Thus the fun.

Sometimes It’s so cathartic to create something so colorful with minimal effort. ;} 

Take one strip + add another on top with the glue in a cross-like shape. 

Then add another… 

You can do three or four of them – I thought it was fun to add another color, so I went for four. 

This glue dries pretty quickly but I gave it a moment, and cut a strip of this fun velvet ribbon. 

Then I glued it together, and secured it to the back of each little snowflake with hot glue. {Hot glue tends to work better with fabric than super glue.} 

Tada! 

After letting it dry for a moment, you’re done. 

Aren’t these oh so pretty and fun?

We love the way they look, especially when the sunlight shines through!

All the sparkles and happy hues. 

As always, let us know if you try them. We’d love to hear.
