Hello ladies! I'm planning a winter wonderland wedding, and I want to hang small-ish plastic snowflakes from the ceiling. I've been looking around, but I can't find decent looking, affordable snowflakes that fit the criteria anywhere! I was wondering if anyone that's in the same boat had any sugestions. Thanks!

My dad used to make these snowflakes out of 6 pack ring holders. It's sort of hard to describe and it's been a long time since we've made them. I know that you take two holders and place them together. Put two staples in the middle to hold them together. Then take the top hold and bend the sides up so the touch each other and staple them together. Do that with the other side. That's one part of the snowflake. I think you need twelve of those. Then you use clear fishing line and place all the parts into a circle (with the narrowest edges in the middle) and wrap them together in the middle with the fishing line. I hope I explained it well. You can spray paint them or use spray glitter or what every to decorate them.
