Beaded snowflakes

Here's how...

Felted snowflake table mats

I bought a couple of packs of snowflakes on my first visit to Jo-Ann, with no idea of what I would use them for. But at $1 for two, I just couldn't resist. After playing with them for a while I decided they would make great table mats for Christmas. So I returned to Jo-Ann and bought another 22 packs! So, I now have six table mats and six coasters ready for my Winter Woodland themed Christmas table.

Have a sweet day!
