Start with a square piece of paper
Fold the paper diagonally to make a triangle
Fold it diagonally again to make a smaller triangle
Fold the triangle into thirds or quarters, depending on the snowflake shape you want
Keep the folded edges aligned neatly
Cut small shapes, triangles, or curves along the edges
Avoid cutting all the way through the folded paper
Unfold the paper carefully
Flatten the snowflake gently
Repeat with different cuts for different designs
