Snowflake Fun Facts – Early Paper Snowflakes by Frances Chickering, a minister’s wife from Maine, published these snow-crystal images along with many others in her 1864 book Cloud Crystals: A Snow-Flake Album. She examined snow crystals as they fell on her windowsill and quickly cut paper replicas of their forms, which were later transferred to the pages of her album.
