Well hello Blogosphere. It’s been too long. But thats ok. My new years resolution is to be thankful for the things that distract us. Because they are probably worthwhile. Getting frustrated over not having time to read ‘The Week’ or ‘Style’ magazine is even less productive!<\/p>\n

You need to share in the revolution of paper snowflakes. It started with a little festive gathering of friends and turned into Crafty craic. There were doubters. There were those who feared the shame and denied their inner crafter. But all were overcome when the admiration came rolling in, as these free and floaty paper creations hung in their festive foray.<\/p>\n

When Jamie Oliver presented his Christmas show beneath a swathe of paper snowflakes i vowed i would find a way to cook my christmas dinner in similar snow capped surroundings..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I managed to kick things off by finding some large paper snowflakes online, and stumbling across this spectacular online shop in the process called ‘RE’<\/a>. Says it all really. Probably one of the best virtual shopping experiences you’ll have. Beautifully laid out, user friendly, experiential website. The snowflakes are in ‘gREetings’, and I think I’ll carry on the paper fad all year with the star light shades in ‘REcycle’.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>So armed with mull and gossip, we used this tutorial <\/a>http:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/Make-a-3D-Paper-Snowflake. The only point you can go wrong is when you make the cuts. Always follow the diagonal line. You’ll only do it wrong once!<\/p>\n

If you master that, the wonderful Jenny over at ‘Silver Spoon Society’<\/a> has taken it up a gear by suggesting this tutorial on pinterest<\/a>, thanks Jenny!<\/p>\n

And a happy new year to you all!<\/p>\n
