Star Wars Snowflakes
Our house is currently a winter wonderland, complete with lots of paper snowflakes made by the kids (and our Elf on the Shelf). But I think I may need to try a snowflake of my own: of Mando and Baby Yoda aka Grogu!
Yep, you read that right: A Mandalorian-inspired paper snowflake. Before you dismiss the idea and think it sounds way too hard, hold up. Artist and Art Historian Travis Lee Clark shared exactly how he designed the Mando/Grogu snowflake, and exactly how you can too.
Supplies Needed To Make A Mando/Baby Yoda Inspired Snowflake
How To Make A Mando Snowflake
Step 1
First step: fold the paper as you would for a six-pointed snowflake. (This is key: the wrong fold will lead to, well, an interesting looking Baby Yoda and Mando).
Step 2
Next up: use the drawing design template that Clark provides on his Facebook. You can even print it off and trace it to make it a bit easier.
If you’re still a bit unsure of how to create this complex but really cool snowflake, Scott created a YouTube tutorial that explains how to make the Mando/Grogu snowflake step by step.
The video is appropriately titled “This is the Way to Cut The Mandosnowflake” in homage to the Disney+ show The Mandalorian.

So get out that white paper, fold your six-pointed snowflake, trace the design, and get to cutting!

Instructions
- Fold your paper into a square. Cut the paper in half if you need to, to make a square.
- Fold it diagonally to make a big triangle.
- Fold the big triangle in half.
- With the big triangle point side down…fold it into threes.
- Now, fold the left third over and try to fold them as possible so your snowflake is even.
- Flip your folded paper over so that you’re looking at the backside, then cut off the top of the paper, but at an angle.
- Now shape it! Start cutting away at the sides of the paper, cut the top edge, add some spiky cuts, and snip off the very bottom at an angle.
- Unfold your paper.
