Though this craft is very approachable for our new crafters, we still recommend a cutting machine. However, you’re always welcome to cut your pieces by hand if you’d prefer.

Once you’re ready, then join us in the tutorial below!

I love designing ways to bring a touch of nature indoors during the cold winter months. With their snowy appearance, these whimsical berries perfectly embody the quiet wonder of winter. An undoubtedly fitting choice for this month’s collection. Snowberries, also known as Symphoricarpos, are not only beautiful but also hold a fascinating history. Traditionally used by Native Americans for medicinal purposes, these berries have a unique resilience that echoes the spirit of winter itself. 

To create our snowberry branches, we first chose our double-sided crepe paper in shades that, together, form the perfect palette to replicate the muted tones of winter foliage. As for our snowberries, we kept it simple by incorporating 6 and 8-mm spun balls with just a dot of brown to make them look more realistic. The result is a stunning, elegant piece that would look beautiful in a vase all on its own. We think these snowberries would be equally lovely as accents in a larger floral arrangement as well.
