You have the materials that we’ll need in the picture, all simple materials that many of you will already have in your home.

Snowflakes with PET bottles are made in a very simple way, using the bottom part of the PET bottle which is shaped like a flower.

A selective cut of the lower part will reveal a fantastic shape of the bottle which we will turn into a snowflake for our Christmas tree.

With a sharp cutter we will cut the part. Don’t worry, if you mess up, try another bottle. Unfortunately, in our society, this is not a rare item.


Once cut, we need to put a small ring of thread or, failing that, a piece of string or rope, which will allow it to be hung on the tree, but we will do this after painting. So as not to accidentally stain it.

Then comes the decoration. We will use an acrylic or glass type paint, it is important to have an organic coloring.

Children can help with homework as it is a very simple annuity. You can decorate many trees with little work.
