Who doesn’t love a snowman?

Especially an adorable little indoor creature to sit on your mantle or shelf.

A fun family project.

He won’t melt or cause mischief and will receive many comments from family and holiday guests.

Let’s get started.

You will need:

  • White craft glue
  • White yarn medium thickness
  • Balloons…..12 inch
  • Medium sized bowl for yarn
  • Wooden sticks for arms
  • Black buttons for eyes, mouth and body
  • Orange nose….use your imagination
  • Plastic gloves….glue can get messy.
  • Black construction or scrapbook paper for the hat
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks
  • Scarf or ribbon
  • Base for your snowman

Directions:

Blow up two balloons. One to the size you desire for the snowman body. The other for the size of the snowman head.

Pour a generous amount of craft glue into bowl. Cut the piece of yarn you will be wrapping…
