Many people create paper snowflakes, but very few have taken this craft to the next step - styrofoam snowflakes! You can use the snowflakes to decorate your wall for a winter party. Teachers can hang them on their bulletin boards during the winter months. There are plenty of uses for these versatile decorations.

Things You Will Need
Fold the piece of paper diagonally to form a triangle.
Fold the triangle in half. Then fold it in half again.
Cut tiny triangles out of the edges of the folded paper. Do not cut an entire edge, or your paper snowflake will fall apart.
Unfold the piece of paper. This will be the template for your snowflake.
Lay the template over the piece of styrofoam and trace it with the marker.
Remove the paper, and use the box cutter to cut along the lines you've made.
Push out the extra pieces of styrofoam, leaving holes that form the snowflake.
Warnings:
- Be very careful when using a box cutter around children.
