Tree Ornament - Snowflake
50 tooth picks
Spray paint
Glitter
2x 1 inch (2.5cm) Gem Sequin
Cord for hanging
craft glue or hot melt
This is a quick Christmas crafts the the kids will love.
Start by taking your tooth picks and spray painting them silver. Whilst they are still wet roll them in the glitter, you can add extra glitter to the picks later too.
Allow the picks to dry and then glue them onto the backside of 1 of your sequins. Use a good dollop or hot glue or craft glue to make sure the picks adhere well. Place the picks in a circle layout and once secure glue the second sequin onto the top.
You can add extra glitter by spreading some glue onto the picks and sprinkling the glitter over the top.
These look great in gold and white for a lovely Christmas snowflake effect.

tip for painting toothpics:go outside :)put them in a deep disposable aluminum pan and shake pan while you spray them. keep shaking it for a couple of minutes and they dry fast & won't stick together.I did 250 pics at once. i used gold paint, red gems A+
