What You Need

  • Craft paint in black and white
  • Paintbrush
  • Glue
  • Black marker
  • Googly eyes
  • 8-inch strip of ribbon
  • 8 craft sticks
  • 1 pom pom (any color)

What You Do

  • Glue 7 craft sticks side-by-side, using a strong-hold glue. Lay them on a flat surface and allow the glue to dry.
  • Glue the last craft stick horizontally across the other 7 sticks, about 1-inch up from the end of the sticks. The horizontal craft stick will form the brim on the snowman's hat.
  • Once the glue has dried, paint the brim of the hat and above with black paint (or whatever color you like).
  • Paint the rest of the sticks white.
  • Allow the paint to dry.
  • Glue 2 googly eyes just below the brim of the hat.
  • Glue the pompom below the eyes, to form the nose.
  • Use black market to draw a mouth.
  • Using a strong-hold glue, attach the ribbon to the back of the snowman. Once dry, you can hang up your snowman decoration!
