Step 3: Continue placing two more dots on top of it and surround it with swooshes across snowflake branches
Step 4: At the end of the branch place 3 dots and again surround it with swooshes
Step 5: Place few sets of dots between the gaps and surround it with teeny tiny dots using mechanical pencil or push pins
Step 6: Place tiny dots in the centre too
