Today I’m going to share you a video tutorial on how to make snowflake Christmas ornaments, hope it can inspire you for your own DIYs.

Materials and tools needed to make those Christmas ornaments:

I love this video, but to be honest, I don’t think the colors of the seed beads are great for Christmas. If you are going to make these snowflake ornaments, I think it would be better to use red and green seed beads to replace the pink and light green ones. The colors should be the same with Christmas tree and Father Christmas’ cloth, and that will be perfectly suitable for Christmas.
