Blocking Tips for a Perfect Snowflake

Blocking your Winter Glow Snowflake Ornament ensures a crisp and defined shape. To block, gently wash your snowflake in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Lay it flat on a blocking mat, pinning each point to achieve the desired symmetry. For a firmer result, use a mixture of glue and water or fabric stiffener. Once dry, your snowflake will hold its shape beautifully, perfect for hanging on your tree or adding to a holiday garland.
