Written by: | Published: January 16, 2017 | Updated: September 05, 2023

You don't have to be outside in the cold or even live in a cold place to enjoy winter. You can make a paper snowball with paper to make pretty winter decor. These paper snowballs feature pretty snowflake cut outs and are so much easier to make then you might think. So grab a pile of your favorite winter-colored paper and let's make some snowballs!

Paper Snowball Pretty DIY Decor

Make pretty snowflake cut out paper balls, aka snowballs. Add a touch of winter to your decor or make a whole bunch and use to decorate the tree. You can change the size of your snowballs and even use as a gift tag decoration!

Materials

You can decorate with these paper snowballs for fun winter celebrations. Or make snowball decor for the winter holidays. I made some smaller snowballs and decorated my Christmas tree with them.

Instructions

  1. Follow onscreen instructions to score and cut 12 circles designs.
  2. Fold all edges for each circle cut.
  3. Glue 1 edge from each of two circles together. Continue to glue edges together until all the circles are connected together, leaving one edge un-glued.
  4. Cut a piece of twine about 8” long. Fold in half. Tie a knot at the open end, leaving 1” of twine at the open end.
  5. Place the knot end of the twine inside the paper snowball, making sure the knot is also inside the snowball.
  6. Glue the remaining edge flap closed.

Tip: I like to place the twine at a corner of the sealed edge.
