Glue Snowflake Window Clings

Wax paper and glue are all that's needed to make simple snowflake window clings.

All you need to do is just simply squish glue onto the wax paper in any pattern you like.  Make the pattern thick and big because as the glue dries it will be easier to remove from the wax paper.

After the glue dries simply remove the shapes from the wax paper and wet slightly with a damp cloth to make it stick in the window. The glue will not remove from the window easily.  You'll need to use cleaner to get it off.

Good for ages 3 and up.
