This is the 4th year these same 3' tall, 8-point plastic hanger snowflakes have been used to decorate a 6' tall wooden-slat and chain link fence (that prior to 2020 had been covered in English ivy). Every year, white solar LED light strings are added to the snowflakes after hanging.
You can add garland, smaller plastic snowflakes, or any other decorations to your finished creation. My snowflakes have been stored bundled (zip-tied) together and placed on a flat surface in a non-climate-controlled garage.
Recommended Supplies for 1 (8-point) Snowflake
24 zip ties (but you could use other materials like tape or wire)
16 Plastic hangers- same size, shape, and color
Construction Steps- See Schematics Steps 1-3
Tips- 1. As you make more of these snowflakes, you can reduce the amount of zip ties/other connector material you use. Remember, you can always add additional connections to make your flakes more stable. 2. When you are connecting your 2, 4-point snowflakes together, bring the curved hanger hooks to the front of your now 8-point snowflake before fastening the top and bottom portions together.
