This is a pretty decoration if you make this preschool craft and hang it in a window.  With some shiny, glittery beads it adds a nice touch to a window.  Depending on how you arrange the pipe cleaners, it can also look like a dragon fly-as it does in the picture above.  Space them all evenly and you have a snowflake.  Make an X with 2 and put one pipcleaner end a little longer and it looks like a dragonfly craft!

Supplies:

• Beads
• Pipecleaners
• Scissors

Steps:

1. Cut 3 equal lengths of pipecleaners
2. Add Beads to each pipcleaner, turning ends on each after all beads are on.
3. Wrap a small piece of pipecleaner around the area you want connected
4. Get fishing line and tie it to your snowflake and hang it from your window

Have fun!
