I don't know about where you live, but here in Ohio we have already had several snowfalls, and the forecast is that a white Christmas could actually happen this year. When I was a child, I remember being disappointed every year when we would get a snowfall and by the next morning all the pretty white snow would be grey and slushy (or so it seemed). This was just what I apparently noticed. I even named our (grey) kitten Snowflake. Ah, the joys of suburban life.
I did enjoy making paper snowflakes, and loved the rainbow of colors I could use from the stacks of construction paper.
Now with the internet you can even make snowflakes on your computer, pick up an app for your phone, and enjoy some amazing macro photography of individual snowflakes. They truly are nature's mandala. If you are lost for inspiration, or just need something to keep your hands busy before the next project begins, here are some wonderful snowflake resources. (And if you're in a warmer climate this time of year, you can always look at snowflake pictures to help cool yourself down. This is a scientific fact.*)
