I watered down the liquid gel medium too much on the top left curly one. Used straight out of the bottle for the rest of them. All need a bit of touch up. Really happy with how well the origami paper (2 large at the bottom) held up, so I’ll be using that when I cut some more tonight.

Going to try gel matte medium for the backs, see if it gives better coverage.

I’m using Marblers brand of glitter which is super fine … and like all glitter, gets everywhere. But this is a good time of year to be sparkly. ✨❄️🎄

The two larger snowflakes near the bottom are from 6” origami paper - much easier to cut folded.

Also discovered I really like a lot of holes in my snowflake designs. ❄️

Next step is to add glitter to both sides … and hope the origami paper can handle it.
