Frequently Asked Questions

How many different snowflake patterns are there?

First of all, all snowflakes are unique to some degree. This happens because each snowflake follows a unique path to the ground as it starts to crystalize. Since they float through different clouds, temperatures, and moisture levels, the tiny crystals grow in unique ways. However, to date, we know there are 35 distinct snowflake shapes you might find, although most of us won’t be able to see the tiny, intricate designs in real-life snowflakes.

Can you make snowflake decorations by hand?

Absolutely. If you’re creative and crafty with your hands, you can try to do homemade snowflake decorations. You can make snowflakes from thin plastic, paper, cardboard, and myriad other craft materials. In the end, depending on the type of snowflake you’re trying to replicate, you might need more materials than those. However, snowflake decorations are usually very affordable and do all the heavy lifting for you, so many people prefer to buy pre-made decorations.

Can I hang snowflake decorations outdoors?

It depends. Some snowflake decorations made from paper or cardboard materials will get damaged when exposed to elements like snow or rain. However, plastic snowflake decorations and waterproof decorations work wonderfully both indoors and outdoors. Always check the label to see the materials and make sure they’re safe for outdoor use before hanging decorations outside.
