In this guide, I will be teaching you how to create a snow flake using borax and food coloring! Mine was blue, but you can create any color you want! This is a simple craft and you can hang this ornament outside your home so others can all dream about getting one.
Materials: (Most are in your home)
- a jar
- water (as much as the jar can hold)
- borax (3 tsp)
- blue food coloring (1 drop/cup of water)
- pipe cleaners (any color, 3 pieces about 5 inches long)
- pencil
- string
- time

Twist three 5-inch pieces of pipe cleaner together to form a snowflake. If you want to, you can add more designs onto the pipe cleaner snowflake, but be careful, as it will be easier to break later!
The Pipe Cleaners should look like the second picture!

I really appreciate that!
A good idea!
They are like rock candy or rock crystals, so if you drop them on a hard surface, they might break, or chip off, but there's a pipe cleaner, which strengthens the snowflake....
