Start with a square sheet of paper. *Remember, a square has 4 equal sides.
Fold it in half. Find and mark the center point along the fold.
Divide into three equal 60 degree angles, using a protractor if necessary.
Fold left side (A) toward center on left side penciled line.
Fold right side (A) toward center on right side penciled line.
Measure the distance from (B) to (C). Mark an equal distance from (B) up right side, which will be (D). Cut across from (C) to (D).
Let (B) become the top. Cut out a design, leaving some of the folded edges uncut.
Unfold your design.
Your snowflake will have 6 points. Beautiful!
