Materials Needed:

• large craft sticks

• white and black acrylic craft paint
• orange toothpicks
• colorful felt
• Glittery chenille sticks
• Shiny pom poms
• Black craft foam
• Buttons or sequins
• Ribbon
• Hot glue gun
• Scissors

Instructions:

1. Paint the craft sticks white and let dry completely.
2. Break twigs into pieces about 3 inches long.
3. Cut strips of colorful felt to make scarves, fringe the ends with scissors.
4. Cut the end off of an orange toothpick, about 1 inch long.
5. Cut a hat out of black craft foam.
6. Using the wrong end of a paintbrush, dip the end into black paint, then dot on an eye, repeat for the other eye. Repeat this process for the mouth. Or, use a round-tip marker.
7. Glue the orange toothpick nose in place.
8. Tie the felt scarf around the snowman’s neck, or simply fold over to look like it’s blowing in the wind, and then glue it in place.
9. Glue on hat. If you prefer ear muffs, cut a piece of chenille stick to fit around top of head, then glue in place. Glue on pom poms for the muffs.
10. Glue buttons or sequins in a line below the scarf.
11. Cut a piece of ribbon 8-10 inches long for the hanger. Fold in half and glue the open ends together on the back of the snowman’s head.
12. Lastly, glue on the stick arms and let your snowman dry in a safe place where he won’t get bumped.
