What
is a CHRISMON SNOWFLAKE ORNAMENT? you may wonder. A Chrismon, is
a
medieval
Latin word
meaning a symbol of Christ or Christianity,
or a "Christ-Monogram".
Crowns, crosses, doves, stars, and butterflies are a few examples of Chrismon ornaments.
A Chrismon Christmas tree
is
adorned with Chrismon ornaments, white lights and gold balls or garland.
All Chrismon ornaments are white, or white and gold. White represents God's holiness,
and gold symbolizes the glory of God.
While making paper cut snowflakes with my children one Christmas, I wanted my designs to reflect the spiritual nature of the
season. By trial and error I incorporated Chrismon designs into each snowflake. Hence,
Chrismon Snowflake Ornaments
were developed! The special way they are folded and cut gives them their
three dimensional quality.
Chrismon Snowflakes are reminiscent of German
and Swiss
Scherenschnitte,
(the religious art/craft of intricate
paper cutting).
Relive
the nostalgic
fun of making paper snowflakes! You're sure to
have fun making
my unique ornaments of faith!

Read
what 'The Sun-Sentinel' had to say!
"Hello. I teach middle school Sunday School. I thought,
just for something different, we would make the Chrismon Snowflakes. This was a stretch, 'cause I didn't
think the boys would be interested. I was WRONG! My son,
who is a pretty good critic of my Sunday School Classes said that was
"really cool". and it was one of the best things we have
ever done in Sunday School! So much for assuming things!"

TRY THIS says E.P.
Hoke, a subscriber to SundaySchoolNetwork.Com. "Our
church has a Chrismon tree in our fellowship hall. We have a dinner and
a Carole sing and the families make Chrismons. (We put together pre-made
packets of materials for the ornaments.) The families make their
Chrismon and sign them. Then get up in front of the group, if they
choose, to explain their Chrismon along with it's history and meaning. Fun and educational!"
Great idea Mr. Hoke! Thanks for sharing it!
