In this project, I attempted to create snowflake-like crystals using acetic acid or glycerol in the place of water. 

I was looking for a science fair topic when I came across a website on snowflakes (http://www.its.caltech.edu/~atomic/snowcrystals) and wanted to do my science fair on something to do with snowflakes.  I thought for a while and came up with the project you’re reading now.

This website was created using NetObjects Fusion7. I also used a digital camera, of which make I don’t know.
