We’ve rounded up ten of our favorite winter-inspired crafts from the blog archives – they’re just perfect for a day when you want to do a seasonal activity but keep inside or if you don’t happen to have snow where you live.

Paper Snowflake Puppets
Remember those paper fortune tellers you used to make when you were a kid? These silly puppets use that exact same folding technique!
