3D paper snowflake ornament

[@lindak3201]

I love that you always have the links to buy supplies. That saves sooo much time searching. Love the variety of your crafts and appreciate your time!

[@SCRAPBOOKINGWITHMECRAFTS]

You are right Lindsey. Free publicity for Martha!! Love the snow flakes. I don't think Martha could have done better lol Edith

[@nightfairyscrapper]

I did a lot of this even my husband help and donated to center for a bused children. they where so happy. Thanks Lindsay.!!!!

[@Litlmel123]

You are so funny. I love your channel. MS eat your heart out. Lindsay shows us how to do stuff without robbing our wallets lol. Love the toppers, I'm going to bling mine up and put them everywhere. Thanks for this project.

[@yolandamccurdy8802]

Hay girl... in my opinion you are an expert. You keep it fresh and affordable. I love your videos and I now have my 10 yo granddaughter watching and trying your techniques. Thanks for making our crafting time, quality time as well.

[@debbieelholm3017]

Love these cute bows. I'd rather watch crafters like you than MS. She has professional designers do her stuff.

[@donnamanion9334]

Thank you Lindsay! I just bought one of these stars from Valley Artisans in New Hampshire and tried to make one from studying it. You are a huge help to me! Who needs stuck-up Martha Stewart! I will happily go to other videos you have made.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

You are so welcome!

[@stampyra]

You sure crack me up! I am going to have to make some of these for my tree. I'm going to use blue & silver. They really remind me of the bows I used to make with my mother. We'd take the thin waste strips of wrapping paper & have matching bows. JIL

[@Melatina77]

I have been making these for decades. It first came on tv on the Carol Duvall show on HGTV! I loved her.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

I use a paper trimmer, an xacto guillotine style trimmer I bought at Staples for $25 probably 15 years ago, still as sharp as ever! Or you can use a rotary cutter and quilters ruler if you have it (I keep one blade for paper and one for fabric because I think the paper will dull the blade) You should be able to cut it fairly strait with either tool or an craft knife and a steel ruler. I don't think they sell the paper is 1/2" strips.

[@scrappaperart]

Just found this tutorial and looks like you're just as good as Martha is....remember she has a whole staff of people that make all her stuff and then show her how to demonstrate it....she doesn't come up with all that jazz on her own....TFS

[@msclstaat]

Martha, Martha, Martha, It's not good to put others down when we all learn from each other. I love every ones ideas, I take them and add my thoughts and hopefully improve on them. I really love your ideas, I may not do what you do what I add to what I do take. I just want to say thanks for your ideas and your fun personality.

[@Fenger53]

I think you an expert Lindsay and very entertaining and you take the time to share best wishes Ilona

[@valeriematthews3245]

What an easy and pretty ornament!! I LOVED watching your video. You make it fun and easy. Definitely not boring! Every other year we travel to my brother and sis-in-laws home to share a big family Thanksgiving. Some years back I began taking ornaments that I made for everyone to take home after the day was over. This may be a fun one to do or to take and have the grandkids help me with.

[@kathaleenkrueger4496]

I wouldn't bother about Martha. I thourghly enjoyed listening to your bubbly, happy voice. It reminds me of my daughters 😊. Because I like to quilt and work with fabric I will attempt to figure out a way of making these delightful ornaments and hear your bubbling personalty while I am doing them. Keep on keeping on.

[@pjee1163]

Been subscribed to your channel for a while now and you are a real source of inspiration. These ornaments are darling. I see a lot of strip cutting in the future for the neighborhood ladies who come over to craft ;-). They will love this. Thanks.

[@KSBuccilli]

Just happened upon you and this video after several hours of clicking and watching looking for ideas for simple but inexpensive Christmas gifts. Anyway I just have to say I loved the tutorial and the craft idea and most importantly YOU! You cracked me up and made me feel like we were just hanging out in your craft room chatting and making stuff. Thanks for the smile today and please keep posting great videos!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

thanks! I'm glad you liked it! I have a blog with lots of Christmas ideas too if you are still looking for something: thefrugalcrafter.wordpress.com/tag/christmas/ happy crafting!

[@stanky6261973]

You ARE an expert, you're able to teach everyone with a simple approach and frugality :) I had a difficult time trying to follow MS back in the day. She would buy the best of the best and I just couldn't do it :( but I did love everything she did :/. You, are the answer to all of us monetarily challenged crafters :) and I thank you, from the bottom of my inky heart, thank you

[@kytennia]

I loved the video and love the little chatting as you go it makes it more fun to watch :)

[@alevalens8568]

you ARE right! you actually use so little paper!!! is great and looks real fine :)

[@wandasnow2348]

You're the "expert" I've been and will continue to watch. Love these ornaments!

[@Rebeccajones87]

Thumbs up! Great job, easy to follow. Take THAT, Martha.

[@Octoberfly2B]

LOVE the snowflake! I lost my BHG Dec. magazine with instructions. Found this video and LOVE IT! Thank you. Plus thank you for actually talking through the steps like I was sitting there, I hate the videos where people are all quiet after explaining a step or play fast annoying music , lol

[@CraftyMomma05]

oooo anotherwonderful, fun craft! I had forgotten how much Iliked making things such as this!

[@rbclarksondesign]

Love them! Making some this weekend, I'm always looking for paper ornament ideas that don't take forever!

[@cathyphegley7414]

This is wonderful! So easy with your clear and happy instruction! Thank you! Kudos to ole greybeard for supporting his team. And I appreciate Martha Stewart and especially love the videos with her and her Mom “ Big” Martha. She is a perfectionist indeed but I also think they probably took whatever she said out of context. Looking forward to seeing more of your project ideas!💕

[@melatina66]

you did a really good job of making those look easy to make. I learned to make those 30 years ago on the Carol Duvall show. I think I've made thousands of them. I really liked your video and your sense of humor.

[@connieturner8604]

Loved your comment about Martha Stewart; I've watched her on HSN and she makes more mistakes that her staffers cover up... it's funny to watch her. Loved the ornaments! I love your videos.....

[@xlovve]

Hi there,my name is Jenavie and I would just like to say that I absolutely love you channel! Just in the past 2 hours I have probably watched about 15 videos! Such an inspiration, thank you. Happy crafting to you too.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

thank you so much Jenavie! Happy crafting:)

[@rbclarksondesign]

Oh...and Martha should be grateful for all the blogger vloggers who use, demo, and promote her products!

[@Clamscrapperstudio]

Always wondered how they were made. I have a wood one and could never figure it out. Will make some for Christmas. Thanks!

[@arturovidal1995]

I thank you for this easy craft. And your good humor.

[@mira-tje]

ik vind het heel erg leuk gedaan. helaas versta ik niet alles maar je laat de uitleg goed zien in de video. ik vind het een leuk idee. top!

[@MsMaria990]

love the snow flakes and tutorial. THanks so much for sharing.

[@RebeccaHFloyd]

What makes an expert? a college degree? years of experience working and creating? Hummmmm........I don't know, but I enjoyed watching the video and learning a craft I can pass on to my children for fun at Christmas and to add to our homemade decorations. Thanks Lindsay

[@millieevans7240]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Can wait to do this with my granddaughters!!!

[@rashitalewis1461]

Martha who? I will be making a couple of these this holiday. Loved the video and I will be checking back in.

[@ngatiramona]

Imho you are priceless to those many of us in need of a patient, caring and gifted crafter such as yourself. When I have questions or concerns about craft, I know you will give the best advice. That's invaluable, and worthy of our respect and appreciation. Thank you for sharing. ❤👏❤👏

[@thefrugalcrafter]

aww, thank you:)

[@cathyb7560]

I love your videos and enthusiasm. Your projects are always beautiful.

[@dawnsaavedra983]

Beautiful job... keep it up. and to the one out there that says they know everything. Well tah hoowey with them. I swear. that tells me your so arrogant....TheFrugalCrafter, I think a huge thumbs up. you make everything so easy to craft....Thank you

[@melreally]

Oh Lindsey I just love you....You are the reason I love your videos...I like MS but she is a little too uptight for me lol...

[@littledott1945]

Love your videos..Thanks Lindsey

[@amyerskine6204]

Love your videos! I think your pretty expert, but appreciate your occasional mistakes, they make you human! LOVE that you do so many different things. THANK YOU GOD BLESS

[@galpalzz]

I love any kind of paper craft and this one is lovely!! Thanks for sharing.

[@sallyscott333]

Hello from Wales. I have made 3 of these in gold and red. Not bad for a pensioner (senior) with 2 left thumbs. have book marked your channel

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Well done! Thanks for watching!

Pretty ornaments! Thanks for sharing! You are great with your instructions and love your videos!

[@nicoleryan242]

great video as usual I love your chatting away while your doing a great tutorial thannks xmaggiex

[@carolynstanley3809]

Love your video. The directions are paced just right. I am anxious to try making some of these. I've been making tea fold snowflakes, and yourwill be a nice variation. They remind me of the Swedish woven ornaments.

[@carolynstanley3809]

Yours will - couldn't seem to edit comment

[@maryfry7246]

I so enjoyed your video and what a great job you did. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@1stLucySchmidt]

Love it. Pinned it. Saved it. Gonna make it. Thanks, Lindsay.

[@CarolReidCA]

These look fun! Much like the woven hearts for Valentines! I LOVE your series on ornaments! I might be very busy the next few weeks! Thanks for the great ideas & reminders of some of the old favorites too! These are GREAT! (News casters seem to like to trash everyone, take things out of context, twist things people say & do, and so on. I love Martha Stewart's crafts & can't change that! She does some awesome things! (So do you, Lindsay!) At what point does anyone become an "expert" anyhow? (With some of the "experts" newscasters use, one has to wonder if it's pretty arbitrary... some seem to be anyone with an opinion! They like to drum up a lotta drama for ratings, even if it means hacking sound bites to make people look awful... just to get ratings... news is pretty sad any more! ) Seems they tend to use the adjective in place of the noun, I suppose!?! I'd say you're an expert in several craft areas, Lindsay (as is Martha Stewart, clearly!)

[@suemartin642]

you may not be Martha Stewart but you did a great job !enjoyed your tutorial,THANKS

[@sylviafischbach-braden240]

Thanks for the tut. I made one using a 6" square of patterned origami paper. Because the paper is lighter (than card stock) and had a crazy op art design to start with, it looks great with strong backlight--you get overlapping layers of pattern.

[@PrincessLaShaun]

I like this snowflake! I used glitter fabric and it's so pretty!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

+LaShaun D sounds pretty!

[@PrincessLaShaun]

+thefrugalcrafter Lindsay Weirich It is! Thank you for the video, making many more to hang from my ceiling around my christmas tree!

[@darlettecisnerosbecerril9778]

Love it, I will make some with my children

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

I’ve been making these for over 30 years! I learned to make them from the Carol Duvall show! This year, I’m going to try making them out of stiffened fabric!

[@SydneyMayzie]

hahaha you're so cute! I love the way u just talk about random stuff throughout the video. Great tutorial! I going to try that snowflake now!

[@kathywade5548]

Thanks for sharing, I love how easy it is to make! Good Job!

[@BlackbearyForest]

I love this video. These are beautiful for ornaments or embellishments. Thanks so much. :-) Laurie

[@doreenb1837]

I love your tuts. You are a Hoot. Love this snowflake ornament, you make it look so easy...oh it is...thank you . I watch your vids a lot! ! ! LOVE YA

[@mariansmith5195]

Very clear understandable directions. I can do it. Thanks much

[@mastersadvocate]

Hi Lindsay! I enjoyed watching you make that paper snowflake! You made it look easy! I'm going to try making one! Your friend, Janet in Canada

[@DeeLightfulCo]

I think this would be cute to make an even smaller one 1/4 in and glue to one side for a package bow, or one on each side for an ornament. About Martha, she made herself who she is today, but if you ever watch her try to craft she isn't a crafter. But she is a smart business woman getting into the craft line. Look how much stuff we buy with her name on it! :) dee

[@raccoonloca2586]

It looks lovely.

[@debb3554]

Just in time for me to make some for Christmas. Thanks for another great idea. :)

[@grannym2]

Awesome ..clear instructions..thank you

[@marugarcia2574]

Excellent! !...thanks for sharing Have a wonderful day!!

[@FurysAngel1n2]

I love wat hing your videos they are so much fun. What if I'm horrible at cutting paper can I buy them already in strips. I'm pretty sure I can't cut in a straight line, even if my life depended on it. Thank you. B.C.

[@rosebud5543]

Omg! I luv the stars. thank you for sharing. You're the best ☆

[@tracymorrison3447]

tfs we are all work in progress ...sometimes our mistakes are our greatest achivements ... you make it fun and easy...

[@jessicagriffis17]

Very nice and funny too!! love it!!

[@soniaguzman7327]

I love Martha Stewart. I have made those snowflakes for many years but I don't insert the straight pieces to glue in the inside. I glue them to the back and they look really pretty and puffy that way.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Sonia Guzman thanks for the tip:)

[@soniaguzman7327]

I love your videos and your enthusiasm. You are fun to watch

[@dorothymutafopulos7460]

Love it. Thank you so much. I don't know how much more can you explain it. great job. Practice practice makes perfect and then you come an expert. jjajjajjjjajaaa. Sorry Martha I wonder how you learned everything you know!!!!!! ;)

[@thefrugalcrafter]

try 3"x1/4" wide strips:)

[@frillydilly52]

MS could learn something from you...you rock :P

[@kdnkdd]

Love this. Would it be possible to make the smaller and what measurements would I need?

[@nldoonan]
