Snowflake Cloud Mobile

How to make a tissue paper cloud with lighting and snowflakes. (With help from my flying friend)

You will need:
- Tissue Paper
- Wire
- Scissors

Step 2: Take 8 sheets of tissue paper and do an accourdian fold of 1 1/2"

Step 3: Cut two 10" pieces of wire

Step 4: Fold the tissue paper in half and add one of the wires. Make sure to twist at the end. 

Step 5: Add the second wire to the other side. This will be your hanger. You will have one long wire and two short wires on either side.

Step 6: Cut each corner to round out the edges

Step 7: Lift each layer of tissue paper to the middle. Make sure to do that on the top and bottom.

Step 8: Its starting to look cloudy.

(next steps are additives if you so wish to continue)

Materials you will need if you wish to add lighting.

- silver party streamers
- hot glue

Step 9: Take a few strands of silver streamer and add to the bottom of the cloud with hot glue.

Step 10: I think I see lighting!!!

Materials: If you wish to add snowflakes, please have the following:

- fishing line
- coffee filter snowflakes (made ahead of time)
- hot glue
- scissors

Step 12: Cut a few strands of fishing line to different lengths. Put a small dab of hot glue on the fishing line to the snowflake. When that is dry then take the other end of the fishing line and glue to the bottom of the cloud. 

 Step 13: Repeat the last step as much as you want it to snow. Be sure to think of the placement of each snowflake.

 I think its starting to get chilly. Stay warm this winter.
