Add some sparkle to your existing winter snowflake-making library program with paper circuits! Here I used aluminum foil tape instead of copper tape since I associate snow with sparkly white and silver colors. (After a while, snow on the ground can become gray, yellow, and black!)
If you try this, share your shining snowflakes below 
Materials:
- Paper
- Scissors
- Copper foil tape or aluminum foil tape
- (or tape and aluminum foil cut into strips, see Aluminum foil strips + tape (when you don’t have copper tape)
- LEDs
- Coin cell batteries
- Binder clip
I made sure the design in the center doesn’t touch both sides or it’ll short the circuit and the LED won’t light up.
Here’s a close-up of the LED… I added more aluminum tape strips on top to hold down the LED legs. And I made sure to mark which side is positive and which side is negative.
I put the battery on the other end, and folded over the tape… I realized I could just stick the tape to both sides of the battery … then I wouldn’t need the binder clip to hold it down! But that might be a little bit tricky.
Here’s the binder clip holding down the battery. It also doubles as a loop for hanging!
